cixliv announced REK for iOS (beta, via TestFlight): a phone-based simulator that runs the exact physics and robot AI of real humanoid robots, letting anyone train as a "robot pilot."
Per the TestFlight listing, the fighting sim shares the same AI as the company's real-world humanoids; players who reach Pro in the sim qualify to fight real robots at live REK events. Requires iOS 16+.
