FromSoftware has confirmed that Armored Core 6 Fires Of Rubicon will feature online multiplayer PvP.

Speaking with PCGamer, Armored Core 6 director Masaru Yamamura said:

“There is a PvP mode, online PvP that has both 1v1 and 3v3 matches. The idea behind the 3v3 is more of a ‘mecha festival,’ with metal flying everywhere. We hope you can look forward to that.

There were instances where we thought this might be interesting to incorporate, maybe other multiplayer elements, but at the end of the day we wanted this to be focused on the singleplayer experience first and foremost.

We wanted to focus on that assembly aspect, and that experience of personalizing and assembling your AC, constantly optimizing yourself in response to these different situations. We wanted that to be the core focus, and we wanted the story to carry through that.”

Armored Core 6 Fires 0f Rubicon is slated to release for the PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam on 25 August 2023.
