Much like the developer’s previous games, Armored Core 6 exists in a genre of its own.

This is the story of two magical children who mysteriously possess the power of the sun and moon. Working together to utilize their “Eclipse Magic” is the only way that they (and the rest of their companions) will be able to fend off the creations of an evil alchemist known only as The Fleshmancer.
