Can't speak for the switch version but I assume it's a solid port. If you're a fan of the old armored core games, this game fills that nostalgia. Great game

Port? Wasn't this game made exclusively for Nintendo Switch?

It came out on Switch first in 2019 tthen was ported to PC in 2020.

I am interested but hesitatn, mainly due to co op. Can Co op be done for multiple people on one cart, or does everyone need a copy?

Are you sure it has local co-op? Maybe they added it recently.

Looks like there's conflicting info on this.

It's one person per cart, per console.

The Switch doesn't play around.

I'm not sure that's why I said I was hesitant and asked if anyone knew from first hand. Lol.

Apparently split screen was originally intended to be included, but was cut from the final release.

Thanks. I like this play style so I'll probably still snag it physical, but would have loved to have my friends play split screen.

I mean, it plays fine on emulator. Maybe you can do "net play" if your PC can run multiple copies side by side.

The actual console experience is much better though.

Oh god how I miss Armored Core.. this game just isn't the same. No releases last gen as of yet, wth? AC:FA was the best imo 😉

I highly suggest playing the demo before picking this up. I was hoping for something like Zone of the Enders but it's actually more like Anthem. It looks very cool, visually, but it gets repetitive really fast. Was unimpressed.
