FromSoftware’s Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon is ending the year by introducing ranked matchmaking for PvP. Players can battle each other in competitive matches for a spot on the leaderboard and even personalize nameplates to establish their presence. Check out the trailer below below.

Patch 1.05 also adds new parts for customizing one’s Armored Core and three new PvP maps to battle in. There should be PvP-exclusive balance changes on top of the usual bug fixes and changes, so stay tuned when the full patch notes go live tomorrow.
