What are the best auto battlers? The auto chess and auto battler genre may have been a flash in the pan, but it's been a fascinating one to watch. It all started with Dota Auto Chess, a custom game mode for Dota 2 which then spun off to do its own thing, simply called Auto Chess. Valve took notice, and decided to create the ill-fated Dota Underlords.

If you're interested in auto chess games, our list of the best auto battlers available to play will steer you in the right direction. Underlords sadly stopped receiving support at the end of 2020. However, while there aren't too many decent contenders for the crown of 'best' auto battler, the entries on this list all do something a little different, representing the best PC games the scene can offer.
