While newer fans of FromSoftware games may be used to big open-world games through Elden Ring, dedicated fans of the Armored Core franchise will have already expected the upcoming mission-based gameplay in Armored Core 6.

Armored Core 6 has a much longer playtime length than previous Armored Core games. This is due to a higher amount of missions, as well as the inclusion of bigger missions, which can take up to 15-20 minutes to complete.

Armored Core has five chapters and 40 missions. The mission count just includes your first playthrough, as New Game+ and New Game++ ad new missions, which makes the mission count rise to around 60.

In certain chapters, you can choose between two missions, which cancels out the other mission and sets you on the path to a certain ending. So, to see all endings you will need to play through the game multiple times.
