Armored Core 2 is a game where you step into the cockpit of a formidable machine known as the Armored Core and experience missions and battles on the red terrain of Mars. Divided into two main modes, the video game offers fast-paced gameplay. In mission mode, users are faced with a variety of tasks across vast open levels. Opponents range from automated machines to mysterious weapons and pilots, adding extra strategic complexity to each mission. The reward for successfully completing tasks is credits and spare parts, which expands the customization functions. Arena, on the other hand, puts you in a competitive ranking system that pits you against other experienced pilots in intense battles.

Climbing the ranks is not only a testament to skill, but also a means of accumulating additional credits and parts. The appeal of the arena lies in the unpredictability of the opponents, which makes each fight a unique challenge. A distinctive feature of Armored Core 2 is its wide possibilities for customizing the armored core. With over 200 parts, including internal equipment and expansion packs, you can create a unique military vehicle to suit your playstyle. The ability to change the paint scheme and emblem further enhances the personalization aspect. It is important to find a balance between components to avoid exceeding mass or power limits and ensure optimal performance on the Martian battlefield.
