Dutch Robot Wars (known as Robot Wars: The Dutch Battles in the Netherlands) was the Dutch version of the British television game show, Robot Wars. It was broadcast by the BNN network on the Nederland 2 TV channel from 2001 to 2003. The show ran for two series, which were filmed alongside Series 5 and 6 of the UK version. Despite being made for a Dutch audience, recorded in the Dutch language and featuring mainly Dutch competitors, the series was actually filmed in the main Robot Wars TV studio in London, with the battles taking place in the main Robot Wars Arena. The series also featured many robots from Belgium (as the two countries share the same robot combat association), with the highest placed representative from each series being crowned the Belgian champion.

| - Dutch Robot Wars (known as Robot Wars: The Dutch Battles in the Netherlands) was the Dutch version of the British television game show, Robot Wars. It was broadcast by the BNN network on the Nederland 2 TV channel from 2001 to 2003. The show ran for two series, which were filmed alongside Series 5 and 6 of the UK version.

The series also featured many robots from Belgium (as the two countries share the same robot combat association), with the highest placed representative from each series being crowned the Belgian champion. Qualifiers for the series took place in Eindhoven. This took the form of a simple demonstration process, similar to the selections for UK Series 2 and 3. As there were so few robots available, every robot that was able to move, while being within the weight limit was automatically accepted for the series. Despite this, Marien van der Meer claims that 106 entries attempted to qualify for the first series.
