The Armored Core series is renowned in the mech action genre for its intense one on one battles and customization options. Armored Core V is a new entry that revolutionizes the series with more content than the previous games, a completely new atmosphere, and a robust offline mode. In addition, the online mode has been newly designed to focus on huge team based battles on a global scale. Featuring mechs or Armored Cores that are smaller in scale than in previous games, Armored Core V centers more on tactics and effectively utilizing the geography of a level rather than just relying on attacks.
