You may be wrapping up your Armored Core 6 playthrough and still be wanting more. So does the game have a New Game Plus mode for you to play once you’ve rolled credits? Here’s everything we can tell you.
FromSoftware is known for games that provide tons of replayability. Most of their games are filled with secrets, it takes so much time for you to find all of them.
Hence, the general expectation is that Armored Core 6 should also have a New Game Plus mode. This is because, in the past, a few Armored Core games had New Game Plus while others did not.
Not only has it been confirmed that AC6 has New Game Plus features, the game director designed NG+ as something players should be taking on rather than just a bonus for dedicated fans.
Does Armored Core 6 have a New Game Plus mode?
Armored Core 6 has extensive New Game Plus features, including new missions, story beats, and branching paths for players to explore.
FromSoftware-focused content creators like VaatiVidya, FightinCowboy, and Iron Pineapple have all mentioned that, in their interviews, they were given details of Armored Core 6’s New Game Plus.
Game director Masaru Yamamura gave more context to this in a recent interview with Taiwanese outlet Gamebase. “Players are expected to play repeatedly with different endings,” he explained when talking about the features included in NG+.

Multiple endings isn’t the only thing luring players in for more content, however. According to Iron Pineapple, there are new missions that unlock in both New Game Plus and New Game Plus 2 that aren’t available in the base game.
Players will have new challenges to overcome in their souped-up mechs via missions that are significantly altered or changed from as early as the first mission in NG+. So, in order to get the full story of Armored Core 6, players will have to play through the entire game at least 3 times.
Though the base game has clocked in at anywhere from 10-15 hours long with those playing it early, the title really gains some new life from additional content. If you play through the game for the first time and are disappointed by the content on offer, give New Game Plus a try.
