BattleBots is Back: 
New TV Series and Live Event!

BotFans!
Get ready for a robot-smashing, gear-grinding, metal-twisitng 2018—because BattleBots is BACK! That's right, we’re excited to announce that Discovery Networks (Discovery & Science Channel) has ordered up a fresh new series of BattleBots—bursting with robot combat goodness. Sparks flying, robots dying, all coming to your TV screens starting in Spring 2018. The show will premier on Discovery with repeats on Science. Your favorite bots will be back along with some exciting new comers, and we’ve got a twist to our traditional tournament format that will mean more fights on screen, and more fights for your favorite bots! Join us this Spring for the glorious robot carnage over at our new home on Discovery! 

If you want to see BattleBots live and in person, now is your chance! We'll be filming our new 20-episode TV series April 3 through April 15 in Long Beach California.

For the live event, we're moving to an all new, totally revised fight card format where every event session promises head-to-head, monster-matchups that fans have always dreamt of. Each live session will feature one-of-a-kind fight cards containing multiple main events between legendary BattleBots All-Stars; Undercard fights from incredible newcomers; and jaw-dropping exhibition matches. Bounty fights, robot rumbles, tag teams and grudge rematches will all be on display during the 2018 event.

All of this will be filmed for our new, 20-episode series premiering this Spring on Discovery and The Science Channel, and YOU can be part of the live audience. Not only will you witness the awesome spectacle of robot-on-robot, gear-grinding mayhem, but you might be seen on the new TV show!
