BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon - PlayStation 5

A mysterious new substance was discovered on the remote planet, Rubicon 3. As an energy source, this substance was expected to advance humanity's technological and communications capabilities. Instead, this substance 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, the same substance 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 themself in a struggle over the substance with the corporations and other factions. A new action experience from the makers of Dark Souls and Elden Ring, the game allows players to assemble and pilot their own mech, utilizing 3D maneuverability to move freely through three-dimensional, fast-paced missions. Players will face difficult challenges and overwhelm their enemies as they navigate the contaminated and contested planet of Rubicon 3.

The game's combat system is designed to be both strategic and dynamic, with players needing to utilize their mech's unique capabilities to overcome the obstacles and opponents they encounter. The 3D environment adds an extra layer of depth to the gameplay, as players must constantly adjust their position and tactics to stay one step ahead of their foes.

As an independent mercenary, the player's objective is to uncover the truth behind the catastrophic events that transpired on Rubicon 3 and to secure control of the mysterious substance for their own ends. This will require navigating a complex web of corporate and resistance faction interests, all of whom are vying for the power and influence that the substance offers.

The game's narrative is expected to be just as compelling as its gameplay, with a deep and engaging story that explores themes of corporate greed, scientific discovery, and the consequences of unchecked technological advancement. Players will have the opportunity to make choices that impact the outcome of the story, and the game's multiple endings will offer replayability and a sense of agency in the overall narrative.

Overall, this new action experience from the makers of Dark Souls and Elden Ring promises to be a thrilling and immersive journey, with a unique blend of mech-based combat, strategic decision-making, and a compelling narrative that will keep players engaged from start to finish.
