The Electric Arena is a standard combat [[arena]] packaged with the original version of Robot Arena 2. It is rectangular arena with beveled edges and a large electric grid in the center.
== Overview ==
The Electric Arena is a fairly basic arena with regards to layout. It is rectangular in shape with labeled starting positions on each side of the arena. In its center is a large [[hazards#electric_grid|electric grid]] which shocks robots that drive over it. On two opposite corners of the arena, there are large red buttons surrounded by hazard stripes. While the [[announcer]] alludes to the fact that they are used to activate the center grid, this feature was likely cut from the game and these buttons serve no such purpose. Oddly, they do act like very weak [[hazards#wall_spikes|wall spikes]] and inflict a small amount of damage when hit.
The Electric Arena is popular among [[tournament]] hosts, and is probably the most widely used stock arena next to the [[Combat Arena]]. With [[hazards]] disabled, the arena functions as a flat, unobstructed playing area. It is comparatively much larger than the combat arena and features beveled walls which make it more difficult for robots to get cornered.
