Those itching for a mech-based soulslike experience will soon have their wishes fulfilled as the release of Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon steadily approaches like an army of deadly automatons. Of course, ahead of its impending launch, previews showcasing the game’s inner working have now started coming in thick and fast in an effort to market it even more to the modern gaming community who may not be familiar with FromSoftware’s storied series.
In addition to recent previews exhibiting many of the “thrilling boss battles” you’ll be able to partake in during your trek through the planet Rubicon 3, it has also been revealed that Armored Core 6 will also have a highly convenient build sharing feature. According to an in-depth video from YouTube content creator Iron Pineapple, this will not only allow you to show off your mech-building skills to other players but also let you experiment with builds that other gamers have shared themselves.
Although Iron Pineapple only mentioned the Armored Core 6 build sharing feature in passing, a handful of viewers that were able to catch the tidbit were predictably excited upon hearing the news as commenter Haysey_Draws said: “Build sharing sounds very similar to Gundam Breaker 3’s sharing gunpla designs, which I am a fan [of].” “I don’t think this will be as extreme with customization as Gundam Breaker (there [was] some wild stuff there design wise), but I cannot wait to try it,” they continued.
A user named senounatsuru6453 then responded to the previous statement by saying: “I’ve never played Gundam Breaker, but Armored Core has EXTREMELY in-depth customization,” further reinforcing the notion that no two player builds may ever be the same as more people continue to discover all of the options that FromSoftware’s mech-based third-person shooter presents.
Of course, with the Armored Core 6 release date still more than a handful of weeks away, you will have to remain patient for now until you can get hands-on with the automaton-filled action-adventure game yourself. But with several previews already available ahead of time, you’ll surely be able to get a good feel for all the choices and options that the game will give you at launch beforehand.
