    Beautiful and amazing. As a fan of the original games, it feels right. The difficulty curve is real though, be ready to think about engagements in different ways when you get stuck.

    It's a good game, the scenarios and vehicles are very detailed. There are a lot of fantastic animations and action movements. The sound is good and the gameplay is excellent. For a fan of the series, it is a good experience.

    FROMSOFT has done it again. Art, vibes, engrossing and deep gameplay, the best frenetic combat scenarios... Prepare yourself to taste cold steel, fire, and speed. Another Game of the Year from them.

    GOT A JOB FOR YOU, GAMER. PLAY ARMORED CORE VI.

    Not only is it the best in its series, this is definitively the finest Mecha game ever made and is a true testament to FROM SOFTWARE's legacy and passion for the genre. No other developer could have made a game like this and we've never had a Mecha game with such production values and ambition. On a desolate and hazardous planet known as
    GOT A JOB FOR YOU, GAMER. PLAY ARMORED CORE VI.

    Not only is it the best in its series, this is definitively the finest Mecha game ever made and is a true testament to FROM SOFTWARE's legacy and passion for the genre. No other developer could have made a game like this and we've never had a Mecha game with such production values and ambition. On a desolate and hazardous planet known as Rubicon 3, you'll find yourself engaging in manic battles that test your skills and determination as a pilot. The level of customization allowed is insane and will make you obsessed towards your mech just like anime protagonists are in countless Mecha anime. The atmosphere and aesthetic of this title is also on point. A dark sci-fi, brutalist military universe which is severely lacking in humanity and is ruled by cold, faceless corporations and various factions with their own agendas. The emotionally-charged story here is surprisingly well-executed and will leave you awestruck during key moments. You'll know what I mean once you witness them... buddy. The final aspect that I wish to highlight is the MUSIC. Oh God the MUSIC in this game will get your blood pumping and set your soul on fire. Its soundtrack is an achievement and is right up there with the likes of Final Fantasy VII and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

    This is a Mecha anime fan's dream come true! A hardcore game for hardcore gamers. An Armored Core game for Armored Core aficionados. Thank you FROM SOFTWARE.

    FromSoftware has managed to concentrate every aspect of what makes their games special into this new Armored Core entry. Ultra responsive controls coupled with a story and music score committed to the themes the game tackles make for a truly spectacular experience.

    It’s not a game that expects you to pilot an AC perfectly from the get go. Like with all worthwhile things in life, becoming a great AC pilot takes time. But once you get there it’s some of the most fun one can have in a video game.

    Like many others I found myself stuck in one of the first bosses, but by paying attention to what the game was telling me, and taking the time to learn the different mechanics I found unparalleled joy once I overcame these hurdles. And I was able to get through this learning curve simply because the game is that fun to play.

    At the end of the day you have to be fundamentally interested in sci-fi and futuristic settings for this game to reach you. But if you meet only that one pre-requisite you’ll really be grateful that you gave this game a try!

    moment to moment combat is so good, it basically makes up for any problems with the difficulty spikes and a bit barebones story

    honestly the only thing lacking is content, wish I could fight more bosses since combat feels so good

    This game is amazing, the most fun I had playing a game in a long time. The gamesplay is spot on, and feels great. Has really good graphics and the level design is great. Also they don't charge you for anything, like blizzard and ubisoft games do. You get all the skins and decals, and can even download custom made ones. Can't say enough good things about this game.

    All the bad reviews are just as hysterical as I expected them to be, a LOT of people getting absolutely destroyed by the first boss because they're impatient and don't want to learn even the most basic of the mechanics. You can tell they've barely played because they claim that this is "a souls-like with mechs", which it is not, not every hard game is a souls-like, lol.

    Yeah, it's hard.

    Yeah, it's hard. It's not made for everyone, and some people just won't be able to play it, easily identified by their buckets of tears. The game is phenomenal, but if you're going to cry about it, maybe you just just toddle on back to CoD and Fortnite, kiddo. Maybe go play some Overwatch, leave the skill based games to the adults.

    It's been a few console generations since my last playing Armored Core. It was on the PS2 when I was in Middle School.

The gameplay is fast paced and fun and the boss fights have that "die 20 times before beating them" difficulty that From Software is known for. To this day I have yet to play a game by From Software that isn't absolutely fantastic. At this point, with their track record, I can buy any game they make and know with 99% certainty that it's going to be a great game. Expand

    ARMORED CORE VI: FIRES OF RUBICON has good graphics.
    Action is good.
    Combat is good.
    It felt good to operate.

    You'll need strategy, cunning and skill.
    It prioritizes precise movement and timing and skills.
    You only have that one Mech to beat the first boss and you'll need to slash it, as often as you can. It has giant missile launchers under where it will glow orange before firing, meaning you'll either need to cover or do a quick dodge with [] square. Don't stay under the jet fighter for too

    Don't stay under the jet fighter for too long as the Mega Missiles can be extremely lethal in full force.
    All you noobs crying you can't beat the first boss, I beat him under 5 minutes, easy.
    Get wrecked noobs. If you can't customize your mech to suit the battlefield and enemy, you will be destroyed in later stages.
    A game needs a minimal amount of challenge in order to be fun and it's not even hard once you apply the tips I just told you.

    Armored Core 6 is a nice diversion from the Souls games for From Games. The return to modular mechs allows players to experiment with wildly different builds. Sadly, the game feels very unbalanced. It throws very hard bosses at you when you're unprepared and underpowered, while not challenging you enough when you finally reach enough freedom to build an AC to suit your style.

    After conquering the world, FromSoftware returns to its roots in a passion project manages to elevate Armored Core's original concepts through its newfound technical mastery without ever diluting the game's classic formula.

    From’s mech series is purring better than ever, offering you a path to finesse like little else, though some parts here could still use a tune-up. [Issue#32, p.76]
