A tactical shooter is a subgenre of video games that emphasizes realistic combat scenarios and strategic gameplay. Players often control military or law enforcement characters, engaging in missions that require teamwork, planning, and precise execution. The focus is on using tactics and strategy rather than just fast reflexes, making each decision critical to success. These games often feature realistic weapon mechanics, cover systems, and environmental interactions. Popular examples of tactical shooters include titles like Rainbow Six Siege and Counter-Strike. Players typically engage in multiplayer modes, where coordination and communication with teammates are essential for achieving objectives.
