RWBY: Amity Arena

RWBY: Amity Arena is an official mobile game of the American anime web series, RWBY. The game appears to transport players to the world of Remnant to create a team of Huntsmen and Huntresses fighting in the Vytal Festival. Players will pit their chosen champions against each other in unique biomes just like in the Amity Colosseum. NHN Entertainment were inspired by Remnant: The Game, the board game the characters play in Volume 2. The game was revealed by Rooster Teeth on April 25, 2018.

Trivia

 * The four Team RWBY characters as well as Uncle Qrow and Neopolitan stand out for having additional adjectives indicating which power they use (and in the case of Ruby, Blake and Yang, because they have two versions): Scythe/Sniper Ruby, Ice Weiss, Ribbon/Shadow Blake, Biker/Rocket Yang, Crow Qrow and Parasol Neo.
 * Sniper, Ice, Shadow and Rocket have the original character designs, Scythe and Ribbon show post-Volume 4 redesigns, and Biker is Yang in her Hunter outfit, complete with her aviator sunglasses and helmet.
 * Some of the units have alternate outfits, mostly the eight protagonists:
 * Scythe Ruby, Ice Weiss and Ribbon Blake have their pajamas (the first for early access players, the latter two, once the Cookie Shop was created during the game's first update), whereas Nora got an RTX shirt for those who attended the 2018 convention, while Sniper Ruby, Shadow Blake, Jaune, and Pyrrha have their Beacon Academy uniforms which are accessible via Outfit Draw. Uniforms were made available for Scythe, Ice, Ribbon and Rocket in 2019.
 * As of the Christmas 2018 update, the pajamas of Team JNPR and the rest of Team RWBY are now available in the Cookie Shop. In Yang's case, it is Biker Yang, with a slightly altered color scheme (black top and orange shorts, an inversion of the show's pajamas) as well as a purple ribbon (which Yang normally ties around her leg) resting on her head.
 * Included in the Christmas Non-Descript Winter Holiday update is a Cookie Crate that can be brought with Chocolate Cookies that allows the player access the Christmas outfits of Nolan, May, Nevermore Chick and Ursa Major via Outfit Draw.
 * Another Christmas promotion had a holiday outfit for Penny that can be purchased alongside a handful of Dust Crystals.
 * On New Year's Eve, the game had a Prom Update which included Team RWBY's Beacon Dance outfits for Scythe, Ice, Ribbon and Biker.
 * In the first January 2019 update, they added the prom outfits of Penny, Neptune, Jaune and Sun.
 * In the first February 2019 update, they added Valentine's Day-themed outfits for Glynda and Qrow.
 * In the second February 2019 update, they added Roman and Zwei's Valentine's Day-themed outfits with can be purchased in the shop alongside a handful of Dust Crystals as well as Lovey-Dovey Crates.
 * Out of all the characters with audio commentary, Neo is the only one who does not say her own as she is mute. Instead, the audio clip that plays once she is deployed is Roman tasking her to use her Semblance onto the opponent, taken from the episode "Painting the Town...". From the same episode came the audio clip used for the Xiong Family.
 * Coincidentally, Neo, as well as Cinder, are the only characters in the game who have their own Emblems, but once their cards are obtained, the Emblem that can be seen in their backgrounds belongs to Salem.
 * The January 2019 update added two new audio clips for Coco and Sun, with the former's taken from the episode, "Lessons Learned", and the latter's from the RWBY Chibi episode, "Big Vacation".
 * Both of Yang's quotes are taken from RWBY: Grimm Eclipse, and Nora's is from the episode, "Players and Pieces".
 * Cinder Fall's quote derives from the episode "Dance Dance Infiltration".
 * During Halloween, all structures had floating Jack O' Lanterns above them. During the Christmas Non-Descript Winter Holiday, the turrets became snowmen and the tower became a Christmas Tree, snowflakes dangled from the game logo in the title screens, and it snowed in both the lobby as well as the arenas.
 * During New Year's, every post-game crate reveal was preceded by fireworks and a "Happy New Year" message along with the Amity Arena logo.
 * During Valentine's Day, the store was filled with candy hearts, ribbons and gift boxes, and a "Dum-Dum" banner (alluding to Neo's assessment of Roman in "Mysterious Red Button") was made available.
 * The Emblems in the character intros are mostly their personal ones or of the organization they are a part of. This also applies to characters who have Emblems that have not been revealed in series as of yet.
 * Examples of cards that have the Emblem of their organization are:
 * The Creatures of Grimm, Neo and Cinder having Salem's Emblem
 * The White Fang Thugs having the White Fang Emblem
 * Examples of cards that have Emblems of their respective Kingdom:
 * Nolan and May having Vacuo's Emblem
 * The Xiong Family and Yatsuhashi having Vale's Emblem
 * Although Flynt's Semblance in the show allows him to make three more color-coded copies of himself, said copies in the game are not color-coded.
 * During the time where Neo and a handful of other new cards were added to the first major update of the game, the last part of her description talks about how she may or may not be capable of speaking, but after a recent update, this bit has been since then removed for unknown reasons.
 * In the Japanese promo trailer for the release of the game on January 31st, some scenes from the show are re-animated using the in-game character game models. These scenes include:
 * Ruby decapitating a Beowolf from the "Red" Trailer
 * Weiss attacking a White Fang member instead of attacking the Lieutenant from "No Brakes"
 * Blake fighting Roman from "No Brakes"
 * Yang versus Junior from "Yellow" Trailer
 * Team RWBY posing at the end of the Volume 2 Opening
 * On February 4th, 2019, RWBY Chibi concept artist, Hajime Nakamura, leaked Ice Weiss' new outfit which was included in the February 7th, 2019 event of the game.
 * The event is revealed to be called the "Ice Queen Weiss Mission", wherein players should engage in 50 Fame battles in the given week in order to get Weiss' new exclusive skin, which also has an alternate movement animation. When equipped with her new skin, the new animation has her skating through the field rather than the normal running animation.
 * On February 12, 2019, the developers have stated that the ice-skating animation for Ice Queen Weiss' skin wasn't originally made for her, teasing the upcoming addition of Neon Katt.
 * During the second February 2019 update, they added the Beta testing for the game's Plaza Feature, which opens up for players every three hours for an entire hour where players can interact with each other outside of battle as their favorite characters.
 * On February 15th, 2019, they made it so that the Plaza would be available for everyone for the rest of the weekend while the developers sort out the rest of the coding and de-bugging.
