Armored Core 5 is From Software’s fifth Armored Core title and marks the series third entry onto next gen consoles. The fifth entry into the series returns to it roots as the size of the mechs have been reduced and a greater influence added to stealth and tactics versus the pure action of the previous titles Armored Core 4, and Armored Core: For Answer.
