– Reach Robotics Launches Widest Ever Distribution Of MekaMon


Reach Robotics, the Bristol-based robotics start-up, has launched the widest ever distribution of its flagship flagship product - the world’s first gaming robot, MekaMon.


In addition to the recent release on Apple and in Apple stores across UK, US, UAE and Europe, MekaMon will now be available on Amazon across several territories,Harrods in the UK and in b8ta stores in the US.


Silas Adekunle, CEO and Co-Founder of Reach Robotics, said:

“Our ambition has always been to deliver the world’s first gaming robot to the mass market and we’re starting to realise that with V2.

“We’re excited to be bringing MekaMon to more people across the world. Crucially, by being in stores we can give more opportunity the chance to demo V2 - we something which we think will have a big impact.”


Following the release of MekaMon Berserker V1 in November last year, Reach has made significant improvements including an entirely new AR and gaming experience featuring markerless AR and a revamped UX/UI.


“Our guiding principle is to use robotics technology to create products that entertain, inspire, and educate beyond those first few hours of gameplay.

“Consequently, MekaMon is designed to be more than a toy. It’s a platform that pushes consumer robotics beyond the novelty factor.”


In addition to the launch of V2, Reach Robotics has also seen significant expansion in the last 12 months growing 129% including key hires to the senior team such as Nintendo veteran James Honeywell and former Deliveroo CFO Philip Green.


MekaMon Berserker V2 is available now priced at £249.99 from MekaMon.com.
