The highly anticipated release of FromSoftware’s Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon brings welcome news for gamers eagerly anticipating its launch. With the curtain lifted on the game’s PC system requirements, enthusiasts can breathe a sigh of relief as the specifications appear to be quite reasonable.
If your trusty gaming PC has previously tackled the challenges of Elden Ring, you’re likely in the clear for Armored Core VI as well.
The official Armored Core VI Twitter account recently unveiled both the minimum and recommended PC system requirements for the game, set to launch on August 25. The revelation has garnered attention for its user-friendly demands, especially for those who have already experienced the adventure of Elden Ring on their machines.
Easing into the Specifications
The PC specifications for Armored Core VI come in two sets: minimum and recommended requirements. The recommended requirements for the game with ray tracing on are as follows:
- Operating System: Windows 10 / Windows 11
- Processor: Intel Core i7-7700, Intel Core i5-10400 / AMD Ryzen 7 2700X, AMD Ryzen 5 3600
- Memory: 12GB RAM
- Graphics: Nvidia Geforce GTX 2070 (8GB) / AMD Radeon RX 6650 XT (8GB) / Intel ARC A770 (16GB)
- DirectX: DirectX 12 (Feature Level 12.0)
- Storage: 60GB
- Sound Card: Windows Compatible Audio Device
A noteworthy observation is that Armored Core VI’s requirements closely mirror those of Elden Ring, with the former even being less demanding in several aspects.
For instance, the recommended CPUs for Armored Core VI are lower-tier than those required for Elden Ring. These overlapping specifications signal good news for those who have ventured into the lands of Elden Ring.
Ray Tracing: A Subtle Enhancement
Regarding ray tracing, a subtle addition to the game, Armored Core VI will primarily employ ray-traced lighting effects in “garage” scenes, the moments when players customize their mechs.
This feature is a less integral part of the in-game action. Hence, players without powerful ray tracing capabilities need not fret over missing out on a significant gameplay enhancement.
As the release date of Armored Core VI draws nearer, it appears that gamers can anticipate a more streamlined experience in terms of PC requirements.
The transition from customization to action seems to be a smooth one, allowing both budget-conscious and technologically-equipped gamers to relish the thrill of piloting these mechanized marvels without undue concern.
