What BattleCore Arena is

BattleCore Arena is a platform game developed by Ubisoft Bordeaux and released in 2025. It was published by Ubisoft Entertainment. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only. It runs on Unreal Engine 4.

The premise, in the publisher's words

Armored Core is a third-person shooter mecha video game series developed by FromSoftware. The series centers on a silent protagonist who takes on work as a mercenary pilot in the far future, operating large robot combat units known as Armored Cores at the behest of corporate and private clients. As the player completes missions for these clients, they gain credits to improve their Armored Core and unlock further opportunities to make money. Some games include an "Arena" mode in which the player fights other Armored Core pilots in head-to-head battles, which can reward the player with further income or prestige.
