While most associate FromSoftware with its Souls series and now Elden Ring, the developer also has another prized franchise that has its own set of ravenous fans. And for those fans, there could be some potentially exciting news on the horizon.
Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon received an update on SteamDB today, which has fans speculating about what that could mean. With The Game Awards a little over a week away, and FromSoftware known for partnering with Geoff Keighley on many of its reveals, there is the possibility that Armored Core 6 might have something to show during the broadcast.
While SteamDB is not a pirating website, it isn’t always an indicator of new content being added to games. Sometimes the “new content” is a patch or a store refresh, something that requires an update for the PC game’s file. Other times, it’s merely nothing – the developers adding a line of text to seemingly hint at DLC, when there are no plans to add anything. Still, Armored Core fans are holding out hope that this could be something, rather than nothing.
FromSoftware and The Game Awards Have a History Together
Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon does have a history at The Game Awards, as it was first revealed in 2022. A year later, the title won Best Action Game at the 2023 Game Awards, beating out Dead Island 2, Ghostrunner 2, Hi-Fi Rush, and Remnant II. So there is precedent for Armored Core to make an appearance at The Game Awards, even if the chances are slim.
