Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon Review

Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon does so many things great right from the start: gorgeous graphics and explosions, a semi-deep mechanical robot building system that doesn’t over-complicate things too much, and a vehicular combat gameplay loop that is entertaining through much of the game itself. FromSoftware has been notching win after win with its game releases over the last few years, and Armored Core 6 will more than likely sit nestled snugly between some of the most favored of the studio’s games. However, that doesn’t mean the game is without flaws, and those not familiar with previous Armored Core games might find themselves struggling to enjoy the experience due to a narrow, but focused, variety of small issues. But despite these, almost every aspect of the game is just plain fun.
