FromSoftware has officially announced Armored Core 6 release date with the latest gameplay trailer.
Bandai Namco Entertainment and FromSoftware have announced that Armored Core 6 Fires of Rubicon is now available to pre-order ahead of its launch. The latest gameplay trailer revealed that it will be released on August 25, 2023.
FromSoftware promises the game to include fast-paced battles, in-depth customization, and thrilling boss fights. It will be released on PC via Steam, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
A mysterious new substance called “Coral” was discovered on the remote planet, Rubicon 3. As an energy source, this substance was expected to dramatically advance humanity’s technological and communications capabilities. Instead, it caused a catastrophe that engulfed the planet and the surrounding stars in flames and storms, forming a Burning Star System. Almost half a century later, Coral has resurfaced on Rubicon 3, a planet now contaminated and sealed off by the catastrophe. Extra-terrestrial corporations and resistance groups fight over control of the substance. The player infiltrates Rubicon as an independent mercenary and finds themselves in a struggle over the substance with the corporations and other factions.
Armored Core 6 will put players in fast-paced battles where they can make full use of offensive and defensive maneuvers on both land and in the air to overcome foes. Players will need to master rapidly changing combat distances, using the environment for cover, and omnidirectional battles.
Pre-order now to get ready for the global launch. The game will be part of the PlayStation free upgrade and Xbox Smart Delivery.
