About "Hero Spirits":
The Hero of Robots theme song "Hero Spirits", is an exciting musical creation by a group of talented musicians coming together from both inside and outside of IGS!
The goal was to create an exciting and inspiring story of a robot with a melody that possesses its own unique spirit. As it says in the lyrics, "using every bit of strength to the very end, I shall make miracles, while warriors make legends". The musicians and production team worked on the song with this philosophy in mind. Every effort they made is carried by the melody into our hearts and minds.

Lyrics by: Water
Water is the wordsmith of IGS and has written lyrics for a number of videogame theme songs. She once resided in Japan for a long period of time, where she became fluent in Japanese language and popular culture. By combining the essence of a number of robot theme songs, the exciting lyrics of "Hero Spirits" were written with the premise of "a warrior chosen to represent hope for mankind" in mind.
Instrumentals: Ultrawave Band
The music and sound effects team at International Games System is made up of several musicians who have a passion for music and creating music for videogames. The team has been around for more than ten years. In the beginning, the team boasted only one member, but now, it is a fully staffed band, which is a rarity in Taiwan. Ultrawave = Ultra + Wave. This combination represents the "ultimate music creation team." What each member wants most is to have unlimited opportunities to create. To create the ultimate is to face unlimited possibilities and to try to make every dream come true!
"Hero Spirits"
例え何も 失ってゆく Even if all is lost
世界の果てに 守りぬけ Until the end of the world, I'll protect it all
敵を潰せ 勝利を掴め さ、行こうぜ！ Defeat my enemy, grasp my victory... Let's go!
闇に刺し込んでくる 希望の銀色雨 Piercing the darkness, the silvery rain of hope
眠りから呼ばれて ヒーローよ 羽ばたけ Awaken from slumber, dormant hero
見よ、人類の祈り 気高く背負い君は 神話のように 高く 宇宙へ Look! The one bearing the hope of man, flying toward the sky as in legend
勇気を与えられて、地球の皆のため Bestowed with courage... for the whole Earth
眩しい未来へ パワー尽くして 最後まで To a brighter future... using every bit of strength to the end
勇気を与えられて、奇跡を我が創る Bestowed with courage... I shall make miracles
時代の流れ 戦士達は伝説 開く In the river of time... warriors make legends
