Bandai Namco and From Software have confirmed the claims for Armored Core 6, the game highly anticipated by fans of the franchise. will arrive on August 25th and from what I’ve been able to see, it will be pretty well optimized because it’s not particularly demanding, although the requirements are different from what we originally saw in this article.

However, it should be expected that the Armored Core 6 will use a protection system Arxan Easy Anti-Cheat DRMand can combine it with Denuvo. If this happens, there is a chance that eventually both anti-hacker systems will end up having some negative effect on performance.

Armored Core 6 Requirements

Minimal requirements

• Windows 10 operating system.
• Intel Core i7-4790K, Intel Core i5-8400, Ryzen 7 1800X or Ryzen 5 2600 processor. This mishmash of equivalence is incorrect because it mixes 4-core/8-thread CPUs with 6-core/6-thread and even 8-core and 16-thread models. The correct equivalence to a Core i7-4790K would be a Ryzen 5 1500X.
• 12 GB of RAM.
• GeForce GTX 1650 or Radeon RX 480 graphics card with 4 GB. The equivalence is also not correct, the closest would be the GeForce GTX 1650 Radeon RX 470although the latter would be stronger.
• To activate ray tracing, we will need a Radeon RX 6600 or a 6 GB GeForce RTX 2060.
• DirectX 12 level 12_0.
• 60 GB free space.

We don’t have any details on what level of graphics quality we can expect with these settings, but the game will most likely run 1080p with low medium quality and a relatively good frame rate per second.

recommended requirements

• Windows 10 or Windows 11 operating system.
• Processor Intel Core i7-7700, Core i5-10400, Ryzen 7 2700X or Ryzen 5 3600. Here we have another nonsensical jerk, the closest equivalent to an Intel Core i7-7700 would be Ryzen 3 3100, which also has 4 cores and 8 threads.
• 12 GB of RAM.
• Graphics card GeForce GTX 1060 6 GB, Intel Arc A750 or Radeon RX 590 8 GB. Equivalences are incorrect and very poorly planned because without going further, the Intel Arc A750 is much more powerful than the others and plays almost in the same league as the GeForce RTX 3060. The correct equivalence to the 6 GB GeForce GTX 1060 would be Graphics card Radeon RX 580 8GB.
• GeForce RTX 2070, Radeon RX 6650 XT or Intel Arc A770 are recommended to enable ray tracing.
• DirectX 12 level 12_0.
• 60 GB free space.

There is not much difference between the minimum and recommended requirements, so most likely if we meet this level we can play Armored Core 6 well on 1080p with high or very high quality. Ultimately, everything will depend on the optimization that From Software has achieved.
