If you’ve been into the cockpit of your favorite mech in Armored Core 6, you may have noticed some interruptions in service today. Developer FromSoftware announced that the game servers would be offline for scheduled maintenance. This downtime is not just for regular upkeep but also to deploy Patch 1.03, aimed at bringing some adjustments and bug fixes to the game.
The maintenance began at 23:00 PDT, 08:00 CEST, and 15:00 JST and is expected to last approximately two hours. During this period, online multiplayer services will be unavailable. However, fans can still engage with the game’s single-player content.
The 1.03 update doesn’t bring groundbreaking changes but focuses primarily on minor bug fixes. While the exact details are not yet available, these adjustments aim to improve the gaming experience by addressing issues reported by the player community.
