The 2023 BattleBots Tournament was a tournament held in Las Vegas, Nevada as a collaboration between Amazon and the Discovery network.
It took place on November 23, 2022 at 7:30pm PST, held between eight marquee BattleBots competitors.https://twitter.com/BattleBots/status/1529417109356388352 Presenter Chris Rose was at the event as well as ring announcer Faruq Tauheed and Bot Whisperer Pete Abrahamson. Although Kenny Florian was absent due to a conflicting schedule, Will Bales featured as a guest commentator. There were no judges at the event, with matches going the distance decided by audience participation. Several rule changes were trialled during these fights in response to the frustrations of the 2023 season. This included obscurity concerning controlled movement, where any and all translational movement was now deemed "controlled", as well as actively punishing any refusal to engage during a fight.
Team Witch Doctor did not return to defend their title from the previous event. However, the eight competing robots were announced on November 26, 2022, and first-round matchups were revealed to Facebook Supporters on the same day. The event was not livestreamed unlike previously, but there are plans to upload footage to the BattleBots YouTube channel at a later date.https://www.instagram.com/p/CeTOlulrtIK/?hl=en Although all information about fight results was initially under non-disclosure agreement, this was later changed to apply only to fight footage.
