Bandai Namco just shared new Armored Core 6 system requirements, and the publisher recommends using an Intel Arc GPU for ray tracing. While we’ll need to run some benchmarks for ourselves to see how the Alchemist GPU fairs running FromSoftware’s mech romp, I’m pleased to see developers acknowledge the Alchemist GPUs existence.
It’s worth noting that while you’ll be able to enable Armored Core 6 ray tracing using your gaming PC, it’s only available in the garage area. That’s the place where you’ll be putting together your mech, so you won’t necessarily need the best graphics card throughout the entire experience. That said, the only difference between the new ray tracing recommendations and standard PC specs is with the GPU side of things, so let’s go over the other parts you’ll need to run Armored Core 6 first.
