On the heels of a story trailer that goes needlessly hard, Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon dropped a 12-minute gameplay preview this morning, and the upcoming mech action game is finally getting into the stuff I've been wanting to see since my hands-off preview last month.
The preview, streamed on YouTube by publisher Bandai Namco, opens with exactly what we've seen so much of already: a partially enclosed industrial environment. Fortunately, our mech hero quickly hops on a launch pad and yeets themselves into a forested mountain environment which is much more open than the levels shown in previous trailers and previews.
