With Survivors being the first Medabots game released in English since 2003, several classic Medabots models are getting new English names. Some of the weirder/funnier/most-perplexing ones include:

Blazermate>Blazerpal
Noel>Natalis
Roll Beauty>Spiralox
Dear Stage> Dear Blue

A Medabots fan has gone through the work of DeepL-ing the story script of Medarot 9 and translating it into englishfor convenience. A machine-translated TL patch is not ideal and the author is fully aware of it. If anyone is interested in helping out do reply and we'll see what we can set up.

It's a top-down action game like Vampire Survivors

Her name's Suzuno!

Finding it pretty funny that with the global launch of Medabots Survivor, the normie western fan's first exposure to modern Medarot will be this character

Probably the last big thing for #medabots 3 - the localized version of the patch (sans audio).

Lots of work went into this from a lot of people, so hope you all enjoy!

I need to find an alternative to RHDN but, for now, it'd be helpful if people could share this around.

In 2016, Imagineer shuttered its subsidiary Delta Arts (responsible for Medarot DS and 7-9), seemingly closing the door on further mainline games. However, Japanese fans were recently surprised to find that the staff still works at Imagineer.
