The Medabots franchise is making a comeback with Medabots Survivors, a new mobile RPG now open for global pre-registration on iOS and Android. The game will bring back the beloved robot-battling mechanics that defined the series, while introducing gacha systems and narrative-driven progression. As we know, tha game was first released on Japan earlier this year.
Developed by SoWhat, Inc. and published by Imagineer, Medabots Survivors builds on the long-running Japanese IP that first debuted in the late 1990s. The game emphasizes collectible robot parts, allowing players to customize their Medabots with different heads, arms, and legs to create unique battle strategies. Combat is designed around turn-based mechanics with cinematic animations, drawing comparisons to titles like Pokémon Masters EX and Digimon ReArise.
The return of Medabots is exciting not only for longtime fans but also for newcomers seeking a fresh collectible RPG. If developers can balance nostalgia with modern gameplay systems, Medabots Survivors could carve out a unique space alongside other anime-inspired mobile titles. The game did well on Japan, so it should have a niche in Global, considering there are not many Medabots games out there.
With pre-registration now open, Medabots Survivors is preparing for a global launch that could reintroduce the franchise to a new generation of players, I hope. You can pre-register in the Google Play Store and the iOS App Store.
