Never underestimate the insatiable appetite gamers have for giant robot battles. That appetite has propelled Armored Core 6 to the top spot on Steam’s global sales charts more than a decade after the last numbered entry in the series was released, knocking Baldur’s Gate 3 off the top spot.

In a summer filled with huge releases, few could have predicted that Armored Core 6 would be able to find such a large audience. The phenomenal success of last year’s Elden Ring certainly didn’t hurt. Speaking to GameIndustry.biz, Bandai Namco Europe CEO Arnaud Muller explained that Elden Ring has given FromSoftware a “guarantee of quality” among fans.

"Guarantee of quality"... every time I read something like that now I have to think about the state that Cyberpunk was released in...

Has FromSoft ever released a bad game? Legitimate question.

Ninja Blade is hilariously terrible, watch some gameplay on YouTube for a good time.

Michigan report from hell meets god of war. What an absolute game. Truly a piece of media.
