Music was used extensively throughout Robot Wars. In addition to opening and closing themes, music was played in the background during battles, when robots were being introduced, when 'battleboards' (showing which robots were fighting each other next) were being shown, and in various other places. The music remained much the same for the first four series, with new music being produced when the series was revamped for The Fifth Wars and Extreme. This new soundtrack remained until the end of the original series. Many of the tracks were also used in merchandise and international versions of the show, with Nickelodeon Robot Wars being the only international series to have music specially produced. All music for the original series was composed by John Waddell and Will Parnell.

All music for the original series was composed by John Waddell and Will Parnell. For the rebooted series, new music was composed by Lawrence Oakley, including remixed versions of the original opening and closing themes. A noticeable difference between the original and rebooted series is the absence of music in battles, with only the ambient sounds of the arena and Jonathan Pearce's commentary being heard. The four tables below list all music tracks created for every version of the series, noting which ones were used in the series themselves, as well as those used primarily in tie-in merchandise such as video games and video/DVD releases. The names of many of the tracks are unknown, with fans uploading the soundtracks from the games to YouTube creating their own names. All of the PC and large console games simply numbered the tracks, bar Arenas of Destruction for PC, which did provide names, these names being quoted in the table. It is unknown whether these are the actual names. The original Robot Wars website included various downloads, including some music.
