The Electronic tag refers to a genre or style of music featured in games. Electronic music is characterized by the use of electronic instruments, such as synthesizers, drum machines, and digital audio workstations. It encompasses a wide range of subgenres and styles within the overarching category of electronic music.

In video games, the Electronic tag typically indicates that the game's soundtrack heavily features electronic musical elements. This can include genres like:

• Techno A fast-paced genre known for its repetitive beats and synthesized sounds. Games like Doom (2016) and Furi feature techno tracks that complement their intense gameplay.
• Dubstep Dubstep is characterized by heavy basslines, syncopated rhythms, and prominent use of effects. Titles like PAYDAY 2 include dynamic dubstep tracks that enhance the game's action-packed moments.
• Synthwave Synthwave draws inspiration from 1980s electronic music with its nostalgic synthesizer sounds and retro-futuristic vibe. Games such as HOTLINE MIAMI, with its pulsating synthwave soundtrack, evoke a sense of nostalgia for the era.
• IDM/Experimental IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) is an experimental genre often noted for complex rhythmic arrangements and unconventional sound design. Titles like Baba Is You, with its glitchy IDM soundtrack, create an otherworldly atmosphere.

The "Electronic" tag helps players identify games that have distinctively electronic soundtracks or emphasize the use of electronic music in their gameplay experience. It caters to those who appreciate immersive electronic soundscapes or simply enjoy the energetic and futuristic vibes that this genre can provide.
