FromSoftware mecha and robot game series is back with Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, and a producer at the studio has talked about how the experience of making soulslike games, from Dark Souls to Sekiro and Elden Ring, has \u201cchanged\u201d the team and its level of experience, making this Armored Core game the best it can be.<\/p>\n<p>This comes via FromSoftware producer Yasutaka Ogura, who appeared in an hour-long Armored Core segment at the recent Taipei Game Show. Ogura talks about reintroducing the hit series with Armored Core 6 after a decade-long absence, and how working on the likes of Dark Souls and Elden Ring has changed the studio in that time.<\/p>\n<p>When asked about the major differences in Armored Core 6, Ogura says: \u201cAs ten years have passed between [Armored Core] titles, we at FromSoftware had developed so many other titles in the interim from Dark Souls 2 to Bloodborne, Dark Souls 3, and of course others like Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and most recently of all Elden Ring. All of which changed us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe experience and know-how that our game designers and developers built up through these titles were able to be made use of in [Armored Core 6],\u201d Ogura continues.<\/p>\n<p>You can see the full interview with subtitles below.<\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube\" data-embed=\"UmAFpsU0XRE\" data-embed-type=\"standard\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"YouTube Thumbnail\" width=\"100%\" height=\"309\" class=\"lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/UmAFpsU0XRE\/sddefault.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>It\u2019s already been made clear by FromSoftware that Armored Core 6 is not a soulslike, but that it does borrow some style from Sekiro, so don\u2019t go into the mecha game expecting fat rolls and open-ended levels. That said, making eight soulslikes between investing in Armored Core games undoubtedly means things have changed at FromSoftware, from staff to development practices.<\/p>\n<p>Ogura also says it\u2019s taken a decade to get back to Armored Core 6 as FromSoftware \u201calways had so many different titles on the go,\u201d which impacted the team\u2019s resource allocation. With the success of Dark Souls and the soulslike genre as a whole, it\u2019s no surprise that FromSoftware wanted to capitalise on their ideas.<\/p>\n<p>While Hidetaka Miyazaki isn\u2019t directing Armored Core 6, which falls to Masaru Yamamura, Ogura does mention that Miyazaki was Armored Core 6\u2019s initial game director, meaning he was involved with the team\u2019s work on the early stages of the game like map design and action fundamentals.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for something similar to Armored Core 6 while you wait for it to release this year, we\u2019ve got a breakdown of the best space games and best RPG games, both of which will have some crossover elements and mechanics with FromSoftware\u2019s next release.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamesn.com\/armored-core-6\/fromsoftware-changed-elden-ring\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It may have been ten years, but the classic FromSoftware mecha and robot game series is back with Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, and a producer at the studio has talked about how the experience of making soulslike games, from Dark Souls to Sekiro and Elden Ring, has \u201cchanged\u201d the team and its level [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":48544,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.pcgamesn.com\/wp-content\/sites\/pcgamesn\/2023\/02\/armored-core-6-soulslikes-changed-fromsoftware.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[571],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-48543","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pc"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
