Ranked Match
In Ranked Match, automatic matchmaking is used to allow players of similar ability to compete against one another.
Ranks are divided into UNRANKED, D, C, B, A and S. Players can aim for promotion to the next rank by earning RP (Rank Points).
Once players reach S-Rank, they receive a rating based on their ability. The top 100 rated S-Rank players will have this distinction displayed on their rank icon.
Ranked Matches employ Single (1v1) and Team (3v3) rulesets.

RP is earned through victories in Single matches, while in Team matches RP is earned through both victories and individual contribution.
The time limit is 2 minutes for Single matches and 3 minutes for Team matches. Maps are selected at random for each match.
Once a player has earned the required RP for their current rank, they will enter a “Promotion Phase”.
During Promotion Phase, players will have a set number of matches to achieve good results and become eligible for promotion to the next rank.
The top 100 rated Rank-S players will be posted to the leaderboards.
Information about each player such as their rating, name plate and AC configuration can be confirmed from the leaderboards.
- Rank and Leaderboard Reset
Player ranks and leaderboards will be reset periodically.
Upon rank reset, players half-way up B-Rank and above will be relegated one rank according to their current rank and RP.
*Note: the next reset is scheduled for 29th February (Wed) 2024.
- Name Plates and NP (Nest Points)
Some Name Plates are acquired by achieving good results in Ranked Matches, while others can be bought rom the Plate Shop.
Name Plates at the Plate Shop are purchased using NP (Nest Points) earned from Ranked Matches.

Armored Core 6 Gameplay
Armored Core VI’s gameplay is all about intense mecha-based vehicular combat. As a player, you step into the shoes of skilled pilots who command powerful mechs called Armored Cores. What makes the game exciting is the high degree of customization available for these mechs using various parts, allowing players to fine-tune and improve their abilities.
A standout feature is the freedom to equip mechs with a variety of weapons. Each mech has slots for weapons – one on each arm and two on its back. This gives players a wide range of strategic options during combat, adding to the excitement of the battles.
The game maintains the arena concept from its predecessors, introducing a “combat aptitude evaluation program.” Here, players can test their skills and compete with others, earning “OS Tuning” chips that unlock special abilities and upgrades. Credits, the in-game currency, are rewarded for successfully completing missions. The amount of credits earned depends on the objectives achieved during missions, with possible deductions for incomplete goals.
In a departure from earlier games in the series, Armored Core VI eliminates the debt system. Players no longer lose money if missions fail, allowing them to attempt missions repeatedly without worrying about losing currency. This change adds a more forgiving aspect to the gameplay, letting players focus on honing their skills and enjoying the action-packed battles.
