An Armored Core 6 live stream has been announced for Tuesday

12-minute gameplay briefing will take place on July 25

From Software will showcase new Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon gameplay during a live stream on Tuesday.

The 12-minute “gameplay briefing” will air on July 25 at 7am PT / 12pm ET / 3pm BST / 4pm CEST.

It will be viewable on YouTube and Twitch, and you’ll also be able to watch it live via the YouTube video embedded at the top of this page.

The gameplay reveal could confirm recent claims that Armored Core 6 multiplayer will support 2-6 players, as well as additional spectators.

Announced at The Game Awards last December, the sixth instalment in the series marks the first new Armored Core game in more than a decade, the last being Armored Core 5 back in 2012.

In April, publisher Bandai Namco released the first gameplay trailer for Armored Core 6, also confirming that the game will be released on August 25.

Promising “fast-paced battles, in-depth customisation, and thrilling boss fights”, the mech action game is coming to PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC via Steam.

“A mysterious new substance called ‘Coral’ was discovered on the remote planet, Rubicon 3,” reads an official blurb for the game. “As an energy source, this substance was expected to dramatically advance humanity’s technological and communications capabilities. Instead, it caused a catastrophe that engulfed the planet and the surrounding stars in flames and storms, forming a Burning Star System.

“Almost half a century later, Coral has resurfaced on Rubicon 3, a planet now contaminated and sealed off by the catastrophe. Extra-terrestrial corporations and resistance groups fight over control of the substance. The player infiltrates Rubicon as an independent mercenary and finds themselves in a struggle over the substance with the corporations and other factions.”
