This upcoming season has apparently already been filmed in its entirety (while fully adhering to the state of California's COVID-19 safety guidelines) and is expected to start airing in December, although no official premiere date has been announced yet. Some notables from the field:

- The champion of 3 of the first 4 seasons of the revived BattleBots, the seemingly indestructible Bite Force, is not returning this year. This means that we are nearly guaranteed a brand new champion, although Tombstone (the champion of season 2 of the revived BattleBots) and Son Of Whyachi (champion of season 3 of the original BattleBots series) are both still around and still looking quite dangerous.

- Team Whyachi apparently has 3 bots competing this year. In addition to the living legend Son Of Whyachi and the insane flipper of Hydra that they debuted last year, they've also brought a new bot called Fusion that seems to have multiple different spinning weapons.

- Due to COVID-19 travel restrictions, far fewer international teams were able to make it this year. Among the very few international teams competing are longtime veterans and former UK Champions Team Hurtz, who have brought Beta back into action after 2 seasons away.

- Chomp's new walker design looks fucking stupid and I hate it.

- SMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE looks fucking stupid and I love it.

So who's excited for ROBOT FIGHTIN' TIME to finally arrive? Any predictions? Wishes? Matchups you want to see?
