Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon arrives tomorrow, August 25, on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. The long-awaited new entry in From Software’s beloved franchise mecha series earned an 8/10 in our Armored Core 6 review. If you haven’t ordered your copy yet, you’re running out of time to get preorder bonuses and even a discount–if you game on Xbox or PC. Both the standard and Deluxe editions (Steam keys) are on sale for 12% off at Fanatical. Meanwhile, the digital edition for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One is even cheaper at Antonline. You can grab a key for only $45.
