Release Date: 1997
"Cyberbots: Full Metal Madness" is a fighting game developed by Capcom, originally released in 1995 for the arcade before making its way to the Sega Saturn among other platforms. Set in a futuristic world where pilots battle each other using large combat robots called Variant Armors (VAs), the game builds on the rich tradition of Capcom's fighting games, featuring dynamic, fast-paced battles. Each player selects a pilot and a VA, each with unique abilities and special moves, which adds a complex layer of strategy to the clashes. The game's story revolves around Jin Saotome, a hot-blooded pilot seeking revenge for his father's death, and offers an engaging narrative arc that unfolds through its single-player campaign.
Historically, "Cyberbots: Full Metal Madness" is significant not just for its gameplay but also for its role in Capcom's broader universe. It is closely connected to another Capcom title, "Armored Warriors", which shared many of the same robots and settings but was a beat 'em up game instead of a fighter. Cyberbots introduced a unique control scheme and special move system that distinguished it from many other fighting games of the time, utilizing a four-button setup that controls the robot's arms and legs in combat. This unique approach attracted a dedicated fan base and allowed for more precise and strategic combat maneuvers. Though not as well-known as other Capcom fighters like "Street Fighter", "Cyberbots" has earned its place as a cult classic for its innovative mechanics and vibrant mecha designs, appealing to both fighting game enthusiasts and fans of robot-centric media.
