It seems the Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon file size is 55.669 GB on PlayStation 4 and 43.340 GB on PS5 with August 23 set as the game's preload date. FromSoftware has set the bar incredibly high for itself since the last Armored Core game released in 2013, with the company releasing one smash hit after another. The Armored Core games have traditionally scored worse than FromSoftware's other titles, but that could change with Armored Core 6's launch later this month.
Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon has looked incredibly impressive so far, with FromSoftware showing off the game's explosive mech action and dizzying number of customization options. Armored Core 6 is not a Soulslike, though, and so time will tell how FromSoftware's fans ultimately react to the game come launch day. Luckily, the Armored Core 6 release date is sooner rather than later, so fans of the franchise don't have to wait too much longer to see how the game stacks up.
Armored Core 6's release date is August 25, and those interested in the game will need to set aside at least 55.669 GB on PS4 and 43.340 GB on PS5 to download it. There's been no word on the Armored Core 6 file sizes for PC or Xbox consoles, but fans can expect them to be in-line with the PlayStation versions of the game. PlayStation users can look forward to preloading Armored Core 6 come August 23, though it's possible preloading will become available on a different day for PC and Xbox gamers.
When FromSoftware fans download Armored Core 6, they will have a full-fledged single-player campaign to conquer along with PvP multiplayer modes. FromSoftware hasn't revealed a lot about the Armored Core 6 multiplayer experience so far, but some leaked materials have suggested that it will be a 3v3 affair. With the Armored Core 6 release date right around the corner, it's possible fans won't really know what to expect from the game's multiplayer until they are playing it themselves on August 25.
Something that Armored Core 6 doesn't have is any kind of co-op mode. Many FromSoftware games from the past decade have featured co-op, though there have been some exceptions, like with Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Co-op is definitely not make-or-break for FromSoftware fans, but those coming off the co-op fun provided by Elden Ring may be somewhat disappointed by that revelation.
Even without co-op, Armored Core 6 looks like it has a ton of content and should keep fans busy for a long time. Fans will have to wait until the release date rolls around next week to see exactly everything that the game has to offer.
Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon launches August 25 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
