Recently awarded “Best Action Game” during The Game Awards, ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON will be releasing a free update later today, adding the highly requested Ranked Match PvP mode as well as Name Plates to display in matches.

The online battle simulator Nest now welcomes the Ranked Match mode. Players joining these ranked matches will be automatically paired with players of similar ranks and compete to climb up the ladder, from Unranked to S rank. Two different matchups are available: 1v1 and 3v3 for intense team battles, with separate ranking ladders. Players can show off their customized mechs and prove their efficiency in battle.

To be recognizable online by other mercenaries, players will now have access to different designs to personalize their Name Plate, displayed in custom-matched and ranked matches. Name Plates can be purchased with Nest Points received from participating in Ranked Matches or earned depending on the results of the Ranked Matches.
