Armored Core has a special place in my heart, reminding me of Robotech anime. After a long break, I was delighted that the franchise is back with Armored Core VI. As there's so much going on in this action-packed mech shooter, I was looking forward to the Armored Core 6 Showcase. The most important thing was the PvP gameplay. Here's everything you need to know about Armored Core 6 multiplayer mode.
Is there multiplayer in Armored Core 6?
If you've ever wondered if Armored Core 6 has multiplayer, we have great news! Armored Core 6 Showcase has confirmed that there will be a PvP multiplayer mode. Prepare for chaotic 1v1 and 3v3 PvP battles where you can customize your mech. It's not just that you can customize; you must do it very carefully.
How you design your mech is crucial in story mode and multiplayer. If you put everything in offense, you'll be an easy target, especially in 3v3 matches. To make your choices more manageable, now you can copy the design via mech codes other players post online. Just copy it into the game, and you'll be ready for a fight using a meta build. Be well prepared—you'll die often in story mode and even more in multiplayer. But if you've played Dark Souls, you'll notice that your skills can translate to Armored Core 6.
