A sequel, Robocraft 2, was released in early access on November 7, 2023. Months later, on February 2, 2024, Robocraft 2 was delisted from digital platforms due to receiving mostly negative reviews from players and as part of the studio's plan to rebuild the game from the ground up. On January 20, 2025, Freejam Games announced that they would be shutting down the servers for Robocraft and Robocraft 2 due to the studio's closure.
