New Game Plus Guide for Armored Core 6
What are New Game Plus Cycles in AC 6?
Once you’ve completed a playthrough, your progression and rank in the Arena will carry over to the next cycle of the game, saving you the trouble of having to climb through the ranks from the lowest level and completing the game from scratch. The difficulty of the game does not change in subsequent playthroughs, but make sure to pay attention to the Arena in New Game+ and New Game++, because even though there are no more ranks to climb, ALLMIND may have some surprises in store for you. New Game+ cycles are also home to alt missions, in which you can take part in the same events from a different perspective.
What are" Decisions" in Armored Core 6?
As you complete missions and progress through the main campaign, you will eventually unlock multiple missions labeled as a "Decision".
These are conflicting missions due to your potential clients having opposing goals, and this will force you to choose only one between the conflicting missions. You are allowed to look at the overview of each mission and watch the briefing to see what the mission entails. Once you completed the marked missions, some missions will become unavailable on your current playthrough.
Are there New Features in New Game Plus?
Yes, New Game Plus features alternate routes for some missions, [ALT] Missions, additional Decision Missions, and additional parts added to the shop or unlocked, including new opponents in the Arena. We recommend about three NG+ cycles to discover all the new features and secrets that are exclusive to a New Game Plus cycle.
Are there Multiple Endings in Armored Core 6?
Yes, there are THREE endings available in Armored Core 6. Each ending will reflect on the Decision Missions you choose, while the other two require the player to replay the game in an NG+ Cycle to unlock new missions that are exclusive to New Game Plus. To learn more about the endings and how to unlock them, please visit the Endings Guide page
