Killing Machines make their first appearance, though not until near the end of the game. They can be encountered in the Cave to Rhone, usually along with the lesser [[Hunter Mech]]s and can also appear in Hargon's Castle. | |||

The Killing Machine reappears and is essentially in the same position it was first in: a monster not encountered until almost the very end of the game. They can be found in the latter portions of Nadiria and will also appear within Mt. Zugzwang, the dungeon players must venture through in order to confront the game's antagonist. It is possible to recruit a Killing Machine for the team, though the odds of one wanting to join the player are extremely low. | |||

Killing Machines retain their previous qualities, though they aren't fought as near to the game's end as they are in other titles. They can be found in the Dragon Graveyard and the snowy area where Orkutsk is situated, locations that may reference their habitats in the previous two mainstream games they were in. | |||
Additionally, three Killing Machines are available as Monster Team recruits once the player fulfills the requirements for them to appear and also gains access to the areas they appear in. | |||

Killing Machines (Roboster at the time) are members of the Material family and one of the strongest monsters that can be fought in the wild, though the player will not confront them until they have access to the Material family gate in the Bazaar or happen upon an arena where the levels of their monsters can make Killing Machines appear. | |||
Interestingly, the default name of the Killing Machine is KB. One interpretation of this is 'Killer Bot', a likely reference to its Japanese name and present one. | |||

Killing Machines appear in the Flying Clawtress, the last area of the game and appear en masse in the rooms they are found, one particular room forcing the player against ten of them before being able to continue. They lack their usual crossbows but wield the eye laser attack given to them in ''Dragon Quest VIII''. While they cannot attack twice given the genre of the game, they do have a frenzied state upon first being attacked and will occasionally drop lucky bags containing vulcan ammunition, a type of ammo that can be used to attack multiple times in tank battles. | |||
