Armored Core 6: Fires Of Rubicon Ignites The Gaming World With Roaring Debut
In an electrifying start that has left gamers enthralled, Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon has taken the gaming community by storm. The game’s debut weekend witnessed an astonishing surge of more than 156,000 concurrent players, propelling it to secure the coveted fifth spot among the most significant launches of 2023.
This remarkable achievement has also etched its name as FromSoftware’s most triumphant launch weekend to date, trailing only behind the mighty Elden Ring.
SteamDB, in collaboration with GameRant, has unveiled a striking revelation: Armored Core 6 has seized the ninth rank among Steam’s most-played games within the last 24 hours.
This revelation underscores the game’s magnetic appeal, outshining even blockbuster titles like FIFA 23, Rainbow Six Siege, and Team Fortress 2, as it captivated legions of players throughout the weekend.
Noteworthy is the distinguished league that Armored Core 6 has entered. Among the array of games unleashed upon the gaming landscape in 2023, only a handful stand taller in terms of concurrent launch peaks.
Titles like Resident Evil 4, Sons of the Forest, Baldur’s Gate 3, and Hogwarts Legacy are part of this elite group, overshadowing the launch performance of many others. However, it’s imperative to recognize that this achievement only accounts for the surge of players on consoles, and the game’s total impact is even more substantial.
When comparing Armored Core 6 to its brethren from the renowned FromSoft stable, the numbers speak volumes. According to Okami Games and SteamDB, the game marches confidently into the silver position, boasting an impressive 150,000 simultaneous players. This places it ahead of stalwarts like Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Dark Souls 3, which garnered 125,000 and 129,000 concurrent players, respectively. The ascendancy of Armored Core 6 signifies a resounding triumph for FromSoftware, solidifying its standing as a titan in the gaming realm.
