Overview and Gameplay
The EGO virus has taken over Electrocorp’s Metropolis 4 plant, leaving the ECO35-2 Cyborg to fight through infected machines and destroy the Supervisor Droid. Rise of the Robots is a one-on-one robot fighting game known for its pre-rendered visual style and stiff, limited combat.
Single-player mission play uses the Cyborg against a fixed ladder of robot opponents. Training mode lets players practice, and difficulty can be set before fighting.
