Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon launches on Aug. 25 on Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox Series X. Fires of Rubicon is the first newArmored Core game in over a decade, and despite being developed by Fromsoftware, we’ve been assured that it's not just Elden Ring with Mechs. If you’re looking forward to jumping into the most recent entry in the storied franchise, both physical and digital pre-orders are available from several retailers.
While retailers haven’t announced any exclusive pre-order bonuses, all pre-orders still get access to an exclusive customization option for the Melander C3 G13 “Tenderfoot”, an early unlock for the Melander C3 parts set, and an exclusive in-game AC decal and emblem.
Below, we’ve broken down all the available editions, the exclusive loot you’ll get with each one, and where you can find them.
Armored Core 6 Standard Edition
Just like it says on the tin, the Standard Edition of Armored Core 6 nets you access to the base game. You can currently pre-order a physical copy of the game from Amazon, GameStop, Best Buy, and Target. However, you can also reserve a digital copy to get access to pre-order bonuses from the PlayStation, Steam, and Xbox digital storefronts.
The $70 Deluxe Edition of Armored Core 6 is only available in digital format, but gets you access to a digital artbook and soundtrack in addition to the base game. Currently, you can pre-order the Deluxe Edition from PlayStation, Xbox, and Steam.
