Customize War Robots Your Way: 10 Tips and Settings
Make the game truly yours: tweak your controls, interface, and camera settings for maximum comfort and performance.
War Robots
War Robots is a dynamic third-person multiplayer shooter where players pilot huge, heavily armed battle robots (Mechs) in team-based 6v6 PvP battles. Players choose from over 50 unique robots, each with its own abilities, and can customize them by equipping various ballistic, plasma, or energy weapons. The goal is to destroy enemy robots and capture key beacons on the battlefield, proving your superiority in tactics and firepower.
War Robots isn’t just about powerful robots and epic battles. The game’s settings affect control comfort, the amount of useful information on screen, and even whether you can quickly restore your account if your device is replaced or broken.
Here’s a quick guide to all the key custom settings that let you play your way. New players will learn how to make the game more comfortable, and veterans will find ways to squeeze the most out of the interface.
1. Save your progress
Where: Settings → General → Authentication
Tip: Link your account to Google Play Games (Android), Apple Game Center (iOS), or MY.GAMES ID.
Why it matters: The green PROGRESS IS BEING SAVED label in the settings means your account is safe. If you switch devices or play on multiple ones, you can restore your progress via SWITCH ACCOUNT.
2. Redeem your gift code

Tip: Place buttons where they’re most comfortable for you.
Why it matters: An ergonomic interface saves split seconds that can decide a match.

9. Enable 60 FPS if possible
Where: Settings → Graphics Setup → Frames per second
Tip: Activate 60 FPS for smoother visuals and more responsive controls.
Why it matters: Fast-paced battles feel more natural, though battery drain will increase.
