From Wikipedia:

Robot Wars is a 1993 American cyberpunk film directed by Albert Band and written by Charles Band and Jackson Barr. It tells the story of a hotshot mech pilot in a post-apocalyptic 2041 who must stop mech hijackers from provoking global war.

The film was originally released on VHS by Paramount Home Video. Some consider the film a sequel to Robot Jox (1989), though the storylines are unrelated.

The film’s title is rendered in lettering loosely based on Earth, perhaps inspired by another film series dealing with robot wars. The tagline is set in Eurostile. Additional text set in Helvetica Condensed. Later releases on DVD, Blu-ray and video-on-demand have the film’s title set in Anklepants.

Designer/s currently unknown.
