Why these games appear

How entries qualify

Fast, map-control-focused shooter play built around movement mastery, weapon pickups, respawns, and compact competitive arenas.

Include when

Assign Arena Shooter when fast, map-control-focused shooter play built around movement mastery, weapon pickups, respawns, and compact competitive arenas. This must be a sustained, defining part of play rather than an isolated mode or sequence.

Leave out when

Do not assign Arena Shooter from theme, presentation, camera, or a minor mechanic alone; its defining interaction and progression pattern must recur through the core game.
