Robot beat them up that is fine but lacks spark, decent hitboxes and pleasant co op. An honest little title to try alongside the catalogue's giants.

Description
Muscular robots battle armies of rebel robots in this lively SNK beat'em up. Published by SNK, released in Japan in September 1994. Beat'em up with two playable robots with distinct mechanical attacks, pickable weapons, two-player co-operation. Neo Geo CD edition.
An SNK beat'em up where muscular robots fight armies of rebel robots, with a transformation system, the Japanese version on the Neo Geo CD. Its desirability rests on its distinctive robotic theme within the genre and the affordable access the disc gave to an early-machine title. Collectors seek it for that mechanical identity and its arcade-style cooperative action, prized by SNK beat'em up fans.
Is Robo Army still worth playing in 2026?
Robo Army is an SNK beat 'em up in which muscular robots fight armies of rebel machines in snappy scrolling action, with a vehicle transformation system. The retro-futuristic tone, varied arsenal and two-player co-op mode bring a pleasant outlet, in the spirit of the era's beat 'em ups. The repetition and a lack of strong identity temper the enthusiasm. For fans of retro beat 'em ups and old-school cooperative action, it is an honest diversion, mainly delightful in pairs.
