FromSoftware strikes again with “Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon,” where frantic battles meet strategic customization. This Black Friday, you can grab it for just $19.99 on PS5 or Xbox at Amazon and Best Buy, down from the regular $59.99 price tag. That’s a hefty $40 off on a game where you pilot a customizable mech in some of this year’s most exhilarating action sequences.
Tapping into the talent behind acclaimed titles like Dark Souls and Elden Ring, Armored Core VI seamlessly blends 3D mobility with a combination of both long-range and melee combat. It’s as if FromSoftware decided to take their hallmark challenge and mix it with explosive mech mania—just because they can.
Set on Rubicon 3, a war-torn wasteland battling over a devastating energy source, you dive into the fray as a mercenary. Your mission? To customize your mech with the perfect arsenal and tackle missions needing both strategic thinking and quick reflexes.
While destruction is a huge part of the game (and let’s face it, who doesn’t love a bit of that?), the real joy of Armored Core VI is in crafting a mech that suits your combat preferences, whether you prefer precision strikes from a distance or getting up close and personal. Couple that with visually rich environments and thrilling boss battles, and you’re looking at hours of pumping adrenaline. Remember, this isn’t just any action game—it’s essentially a Soulsborne adventure, but with mechs, so be prepared to hone your skills!
If you’ve been waiting for a chance to jump into the mech fray, here it is. With the game priced at just $19.99, you’re not just saving $40, you’re entering one of the year’s pinnacles of gaming excitement. But don’t dawdle; Black Friday deals can vanish quicker than a mech evading fire.
