Level-5 pulled back the curtain on the next major update for Megaton Musashi W: Wired today, highlighted by the Megarobo Batroseum. Additionally, Koji Kabuto from Mazinger Z., Ryoma Nagare from Getter Robo, and Duke Fleed from UFO Robot Grendizer will be made available.
Speaking about the new content, Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino said during today’s Level-5 Vision 2024 presentation: “For Megaton Musashi W: Wired, we’re getting ready to release significant new content. Until now, you had to enhance your Rogues to battle online. In the new mode, the ‘Megarobo Batroseum,’ you can just select a Rogue and jump straight into battle. In other words, you can join player-versus-player as easy as in a fighting game. Some famous pilots will also enter the fray, making the heated super-robot battles even more exciting. The new Batroseum Mode is set to release in November 2024. Please look forward to it!”
