After a strong return of a license dear to his heart, FromSoftware intends to continue the adventure with a possible Armored Core 7, according to its director.
That’s exactly what Hidetaka Miyazaki said in an interview with IGN Japan. After the positive reception of Fires of Rubicon, FromSoftware could well spoil mecha fans with Armored Core 7 in the more or less near future.
FromSoftware’s mechas are ready for use with Armored Core 7
Before the sixth opus, the last Armored Core game from FromSoftware dates back to 2012. The very famous Japanese studio discovered a new passion for dark fantasy and Souls-like at the time. But while Elden Ring will soon welcome its highly anticipated DLC, what’s next on the agenda of Hidetaka Miyazaki’s teams? Some elements of the answer emerged from an interview with the man from IGN Japan.
While their next game wasn’t directly mentioned, it certainly made a statement that fans of the mecha franchise are sure to enjoy.” The Armored Core series is very important to FromSoftware. We have a clear desire to continue developing it in the future. I think Fires of Rubicon was a success. However, not everything was perfect and there is still room for improvement. That’s why I don’t plan to stop here. ».
So the idea of an Armored Core 7 has clearly entered the very creative minds of Hidetaka Miyazaki and FromSoftware. However, saying that it will be released soon is no less certain. The studio is still working on Shadow of the World Tree for Elden Ring. This will also be the only expansion. After that, a possible sequel could be considered. But again, you will undoubtedly have to be extremely patient. Creating masterpieces does indeed take a lot of time, as the talented Japanese studio has now proven to us time and time again.
