Armored Core VI Cover Story And Final Fantasy XVI Review | GI Show

Anna Larison

22 Jun, 2023

In this episode of The Game Informer Show, Alex returns from Tokyo to share everything he's learned about Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon, what it was like co-writing his first cover story with Senior Associate Editor Blake Hester, and how Armored Core differs from recent FromSoftware releases. After, the crew dives into Game Informer's Final Fantasy XVI review, during which Wesley says the game contains his favorite moment in the long-running series. Finally, Marcus and Charles talk about Dordogne, a great water-colored narrative adventure, and Stray Gods, a neat roleplaying musical game.
