Combat robots
Battle robot simulators are a popular genre, with games often classified as shooters or action games. The player takes on the role of a pilot sitting in the cockpit of a mech, and in some cases, they can leave it. Usually, battle robots can be upgraded and customized. Unlike regular shooters, these simulators are characterized by the clumsiness and slowness of the machines, which enhances the tactical aspect of the gameplay.
