Bandai Namco Europe And Fromsoftware Announce New Action Game Armored Core VI Fires Of Rubicon Coming 2023

Armored Core returns with a new game reigniting the third-person shooter mecha game franchise. Armored Core VI Fire of Rubicon is the latest and upcoming release, which is coming next year. This is the first game in nearly ten years, as the last game released from the mecha series was Armored Core: Verdict Day in 2013. The announcement was made during The Game Awards 2022 and will be available on current generation consoles and on PC. 

The first game in the Armored Core series was released in 1997 and was developed by FromSoftware as a third-person shooter mecha video game. There were 15 installments previously released for the game series, with many five main installments released over the years. Spin-offs were also released for Armored Core, with several mobile games that were never released outside of Japan. The games offered highly customizable Mechs known as Armored Cores and featured multi-objective missions along with Multiplayer for Player VS Player combat.

Armored Core VI Fire of Rubicon will offer a game experience based on the mech game know-how FromSoftware cultivated over 25 years of developing games in the series, but now introducing ground-breaking gameplay found in the developer’s recent action games. The new ARMORED CORE title will combine these elements into thrilling action that only Mechas can provide. The game promises to be a unique entry in the mech action game genre. 

In Armored Core VI Fire of Rubicon, players will be able to move freely through massive three-dimensional environments with rapid maneuverability while experiencing visceral vehicular combat. Signature to FromSoftware’s carefully crafted game design, the game will feature challenging and memorable battles along with a fulfilling progression system and deep gameplay, all of it now powered by assembling mechs and going to combat with massive bosses. Players will recognize the sense of satisfaction and achievement when they overcome a difficult situation and relish the momentary victory and perhaps a boost to their standing before encountering the next challenge.
