Armored Core 6 best controller settings

FromSoftware has just released Armored Core 6, a magnificent mech action game that boasts perhaps the most thrilling omnidirectional battles. Shoulder buttons on a console controller are assigned to handle a combination of weapons, such as combat weapons, guns, missile launchers, or shields, as long as players continue to upgrade their mechs.

Nonetheless, such exciting gameplay can easily cause a stir as different gameplay mechanics clash with incoming enemies. There's indeed much to keep track of for even a seasoned player to avoid being overwhelmed.

This article offers the ideal controller configuration for Armored Core 6 so that players may experience optimal performance.

The title's controller preset comes by default as Type-A, but the recommended option is Type-B. It's a well-balanced allocation of left and right weapons and can be tactically useful.

Control Assignments: Type B

  • Jump/Ascent: LT
  • Left-Hand Weapon: LB
  • Quick Boost: RT
  • Right-Hand Weapon: RB
  • Movement: Left Stick
  • Assault Boost: Left Stick Button
  • Boost: A
  • Shift Control/Access: B
  • Left Shoulder Weapon: X
  • Right Shoulder Weapon: Y
  • Repair Kit: Up (D-Pad)
  • Purge Weapon/Option (L): Right (D-Pad)
  • Option (R): Right (D-Pad)
  • Scan: Down (D-Pad)
  • Camera: Right Stick
  • Target Assist: Right Stick Button
  • System/Pause Menu: Option Button
  • Core Expansion: Left Stick Button + B

The game requires users to pay special attention to the camera speed settings, particularly when in a fight. If you don't have aim assist and are using a controller, the default settings can make your movements sluggish.

It's better, therefore, to keep the speed of your camera between 8 and 10. You can tweak your settings by accessing the Camera Settings.
