Speaking withXbox Wire, producer Yasunori Ogura says that work on this game first began all the way back in 2017.“We’ve been cultivating a number of development staff both new and old throughout our experience with recent titles in recent years and there were many members of that staff, including Miyazaki and myself, who wanted to make a new Armored Core game for a long time, so it really wasn’t a question of if, it was always a question of when – and not making a new Armored Core game really wasn’t an option,” says Ogura.
Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon is available for digital preorder now across Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Windows PC, PS5, and PS4. The game does support Smart Delivery, so players on Xbox can buy one copy and get the best version possible regardless of the Xbox console they are playing on.
Windows Central’s take
I’m not very familiar with the Armored Core franchise, but I’m really looking forward to this. FromSoftware has become a household name with the success of Elden Ring, and while I don’t think this game will be quiteasbig, it should still be the biggest Armored Core game ever.

New brutal combat is on the way, with FromSoftware returning to the Armored Core franchise. The game is coming in August, and the debut gameplay trailer promises intense action and gorgeous locales.
