In late May 2025, Hangzhou will welcome a grand convergence of science and sport — the “CMG World Robot Competition – Mecha Fighting Arena.（CMG 世界机器人大赛・机甲格斗擂台赛）” As the world’s first combat sports event featuring humanoid robots as main participants, this competition is poised to ignite enthusiasm across the global robotics community and among technology enthusiasts worldwide.

The “CMG World Robot Skills Competition,” a major project launched by China Media Capital (CMG), has already become a significant IP centered on technological innovation. This Mecha Fighting Arena, as one of its most anticipated components, carries the mission of showcasing cutting-edge robotic technologies and promoting industry development. In today’s era, the robotics industry has become a key indicator of a nation’s scientific innovation and high-end manufacturing capabilities. China, being the largest robot manufacturing and application country globally, makes the timing of this event particularly opportune.

The competition will gather top global robotic research teams, establishing a world-class, China-standard robotic competition platform through the most professional participation criteria and scientifically designed segments. It adopts a “1+N+1” content framework, covering physical challenges, skill competitions, intelligent interactions, and more, comprehensively demonstrating the technical strength and application potential of robots across various fields.

In the upcoming Mecha Fighting Arena, humanoid robots will take center stage, battling it out on the竞技场. This contest will not only be a test of power but also an integrated challenge of intelligence, agility, and the technical prowess of the development teams. From nimble footwork and evasive maneuvers to precise and powerful attack moves, every moment will showcase the outstanding performance of humanoid robots in simulated combat scenarios.

Various types of advanced robots will also make appearances during the event, delivering exciting performances. Previous events such as robotic dog free-fighting demonstrated the agile mobility of quadrupedal robots, while humanoid robot soccer matches highlighted their autonomous learning and optimized joint movement abilities — all of which heighten expectations for the robots’ performance in this Mecha Fighting Arena.

At the same time, the competition will establish the CMG “Sci-Tourism” base — the “CMG Robotics Innovation Experience Camp,” and launch a series of cross-media products, presenting the industrial potential and intelligent future of robotics in a comprehensive and multi-angle way. This not only provides a platform for professionals to exchange and showcase their work, but also allows general audiences to experience the charm of robotic technology up close.

As late May approaches, the global spotlight will turn to Hangzhou, where people from around the world will witness this ultimate showdown in the field of robotics. We believe that the “CMG World Robot Competition – Mecha Fighting Arena” will deliver unprecedented visual impact and technological震撼, pushing robotic technology toward new heights, contributing to building a strong technological nation, and advancing the vision of a shared human future. Let us all look forward to the arrival of this spectacular tech feast!
