Trivia[edit | edit source]

The Ankyros was released on April 19, 2013 with Update 7.8.
One of the phased skins released during the Steam Winter Sale of 2013 was for the Ankyros. This was the rarest one available, with only 10 known copies crafted.
The Ankyros appears to take inspiration from a concept design of the Colossus from Dark Sector, as seen in the picture here.
