FromSoftware has returned to their mech-action roots with Armored Core 6 and if you’re wondering how much power your PC needs to run it optimally, here are all the recommended and minimum system requirements for Armored Core 6.

Armored Core 6 is on its path to revive the long-dormant FromSoftware mech series, with the last game in the series dating back to 2013. Armored Core 6 is a welcome addition to the FromSoftware lineup, and can be compared to other titles from the developer like Elden Ring, both in terms of missions and general length

Even the required specification is in line with Elden Ring. You may as well assume that if your trip to the brutal and twisted plains of the Lands Between didn’t see your PC crash on every hillcrest, your build will run Armored Core 6 comfortably.  

We already know the file size for Armored Core 6, including the preload dates. So, here are the minimum and recommended PC requirements to play Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon.

Armored Core 6 is a nice diversion from other FromSoftware titles like Sekiro and Elden Ring.
