2026 NHRL Open World Championship: Pro Tour 3 - Prime Time
The definitive combat robotics showcase arrives at its climax as the National Havoc Robot League (NHRL) presents Pro Tour 3: Prime Time! Streaming live and free on TrillerTV, the Prime Time broadcast brings the absolute elite of robot combat into the main arena at the House of Havoc in Norwalk, Connecticut.
Serving as the final qualification gateway ahead of the December World Championship finals, Prime Time features every high-stakes playoff fight from the Quarterfinals through the Championship Finals across all three signature weight classes (3 lb, 12 lb, and 30 lb).
The Stakes: Last Call for the December World Championship Pro Tour 3 represents the final opportunity for the world's top 48 combat engineering teams to secure high-seed placement or punch their direct ticket to the NHRL Pro World Championships. Following daytime round-robin group play and play-in brackets, builders enter the Prime Time Pits for rapid emergency repairs before facing off in single-elimination tournament finals:
30 lb Featherweight Finals: Full-power kinetic spinners, devastating overhead axes, and high-pressure pneumatic flippers battle for the tournament crown and championship seeds.
12 lb Hobbyweight Bracket: High-torque drums and wedges push speed and mechanical durability to the limit in rapid 3-minute war zones.
3 lb Beetleweight Championship: Lightning-fast driving and lethal RPM weapons where a fraction-of-a-second timing mistake leads to instantaneous disintegration.
Why Prime Time Keeps Fans on the Edge of Their Seats Championship Glory on the Line: Competitors reaching the semifinals and finals secure their spot at the December World Championship event.
The Prime Time Pit Scramble: Between-fight coverage takes viewers straight into the frantic garage repairs where teams race the 20-minute post-fight clock to rebuild broken chassis and replace burnt-out speed controllers.
Instant Destruction: Features high-velocity weapon collisions that send heavy steel fragments and armor plates ricocheting off the arena's reinforced walls.
