A series not exactly famed for its narratives, Bandai Namco has today put out a new Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon trailer all about the upcoming PS5, PS4 game's story. It's a very stylish and flashy look at what will almost certainly take a backseat in the final version — think audio logs and quick cutscenes — as Armored Core 621 looks to be brought back from the dead.
The game launches for PS5 and PS4 on 25th August 2023, and we came away impressed from a hands-off session at Summer Game Fest in June. "The freeing nature of the game's flight capabilities tied with what looks like fun combat gives the experience fantastic foundations to work from. The proof will be in the pudding, but as well as becoming the franchise's best-selling instalment to date, Fires of Rubicon could warrant those purchases on its quality alone. It's difficult to envision any situation where Armored Core 6 isn't considered a resounding success."

Are you looking forward to Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon releasing next month? Will you be diving straight in on 25th August 2023 or are you leaving the game for a quieter period? Share your plans in the comments below.

No from me unfortunately, being a Fromsoftware game I don't have the patience or time to play frustrating difficult games anymore
And yet again someone at From Software forgot to turn off that reverb button.
Like seriously, why does literally every From game have such a strange/bad sound where all characters sound like.. I don't know
I cannot wait for this game! Only a few more weeks to go!
@Grimwood Reverb is a naturally occurring phenomenon in any non padded soundroom.
The only pending must buy release this year for me at this point.
Trailer was not crazy, but have blind faith for FROM SOFTWARE at this point. Hope it is SoulsBorne challenging level
I’m a big Soulsborne fan since many years and this Fromsoftware game is just not for me) that’s my feeling for now.
Is there any actual in game footage of this game out because all I have seen so far is cinematic trailers?
Never played Armoured Core before but am a massive Fromsoft fan so this is a day 1 buy and is probably gonna contend with RE4 Remake for GOTY for me
@Grimwood i think it sounds sick personally
Ready to call in sick just to play AC6 all day!
@BusyOlf Here ya go:

Gameplay looks good
I do not care about mech stuff, but I love FromSoft games. So…I am torn.
even though FromSoft games are great, this so far looks really underwhelming.
So I have never played a FromSoftware game, people telling me about difficulty just scared me away from them, does anyone know if this is going to be the same as the Souls games?
@UrdnotTitan Go on YouTube and watch gameplay of previous AC games and see if you think it looks like Dark Souls. I think the DS association is actually going to harm this game. I think people are expecting DS but in a mech.
It looks great but if this is again a difficult souls like, I’m going to pass. Too many such games coming out.
I’m just playing ZOE 2nd Runner and wish there were more mech games similar to that sort of fun factor.
