Eleven years after the fifth opus, FromSoftware returns to its mechanical loves and announces the release date of Armored Core VI.

While waiting for the extension of Elden Ring and to change from the Soulsborne genre so characteristic of the talented Japanese studio, the lights of Rubicon will therefore be lit this summer.

Reactivation of mechs

Before Demon’s Souls and its now very numerous offspring in a dark fantasy atmosphere where you burp blood, FromSoftware had an appetite for the dystopian future based on gigantic mechas with the Armored Core franchise. The Japanese studio therefore returns to its first love with a sixth opus, called Fires of Rubicon, announced at the last Game Awards.

“Augmented human C4-621 has awakened.”

However, what does not change with this new FromSoftware game is the size and generosity of the environment that we are going to survey. As its name suggests, Fires of Rubicon places its plot on the eponymous planet, the victim of a terrible disaster literally burning it.

It is therefore up to us as “augmented human C4-621”, pilot of a mech that we can fully customize, to clarify this situation. Not of course without facing gigantic and epic bosses like the Japanese studio has the secret.

So be at your post when Armored Core VI enters the fiery atmosphere of Rubicon in four short months!
