Armored Core 6 Update 1.02 Splits Community Over Major Boss Nerf

The Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon community has become split over FromSoftware’s decision to nerf Chapter 1’s notoriously difficult final boss Balteus. A year after Elden Ring dominated sales charts and won Game of the Year at The Game Awards, its highly celebrated studio FromSoftware has returned to its long-dormant mech combat franchise with Armored Core 6. While it’s much different than any of the studio’s more recent Soulslike offerings, Armored Core 6 has been praised as one of this year’s best games.
