Armored Warriors brought a new angle to the somewhat saturated beat-em-up genre, with giant human-powered robots of varying abilities, interchangeable weapons and up to three players who can team up for even more powerful attacks. The story follows a military team from the United Earth Government, sent to investigate strange activity on the planet Raia, with which Earth has signed a ceasefire treaty after a long war. The mech-powered heroes must defeat an unknown enemy who has taken over the Raian capital, though *spoiler alert* there may be more to Earth's plans than they realize. The game adds some new layers to the beat-em-up formula, including challenging bosses, and who doesn't love jetting around in a giant robot and smashing things?
