How to get ALL ENDINGS in Armored Core 6

A guide on how to get each of the three endings in AC6. You'll need three playthroughs, lol.

If you're curious about how to get each ending in Armored Core 6 - look no further. There's a lot of weird info floating around, but here you'll find practical advice on how to get 'em. Each ending has an achievement so it's required for Platinum / 100%!

Check out: our AC6 Walkthrough, which will get you all three endings as well.

The ONLY choice you need to make to get this ending is in Chapter 5 - choose “Intercept the Corporate Forces”, over “Eliminate “Cinder” Carla”. This affects the next few missions leading up to the final one - “Shut Down the Closure Satellite”.

It’s the ONLY relevant action / choice you need to make to get the Fires of Raven ending.

Note that calling this the “bad” is something the community at large calls it, not something I necessarily agree with.

AC6 Ending 2: Liberator of Rubicon (“Good” Ending)

The ONLY choice you need to make to get this ending is in Chapter 5 - choose “Eliminate “Cinder” Carla”, over “Intercept the Corporate Forces”. This affects the next few missions leading up to the final one - “Bring Down the Xylem”.

It’s the ONLY relevant action / choice you need to make to get the Liberator of Rubicon ending.

Again, naming this as the “good” ending is something the community at large calls it, not something I necessarily agree with.

AC6 Ending 3: Alea Lacta Est (“True” Ending)

There are a few theories here, but here’s my 2 cents on how to get this ending. It’s extremely tedious to test this, but here’s what I think and know.

You CANNOT get this ending on your first or second playthrough - you need to be in your third playthrough (NG++).

It’s VERY LIKELY you need to do the new Chapter 1 missions that only appear on NG++.

• Escort the Weaponized Mining Ship
• Obstruct the Mandatory Inspection

It’s VERY LIKELY you need to do the new Chapter 3 missions that only appear on NG++.

• Coral Export Denial

You might as well do the new mission in Chapter 4, since this is only available in NG++, so whether you need this or not for the ending is irrelevant as you’d WANT to play it.

• Eliminate V.III (It gets added as a THIRD choice between two other decision missions.).

At the final Chapter 4 mission, Coral Convergence - you will know that you’ve triggered the path leading Alea Lacta Est ending as early as now, if your objective for this mission changes.

Lastly, in Chapter 5 you’ll have “MIA” as your first mission - and you’re now dead sure you’ve gotten the third ending. Each mission leading up to the end will be a new on you haven’t done before.

Arena / Analysis completion is something I "think" is needed for it, but I cannot confirm or deny this since I'd need a new save. Pretty irrelevant as most people would naturally complete this by now.

While some missions may not be necessary for the third ending, at the very least this path helps you complete ALL missions the game has to offer. Win Win! Although it's extremely likely some combination of these new ones are required.

Note that the “true” ending is something the community at large calls it, and honestly it’s not a pretty legit label, haha.

Summary and Closing

If you're reading this, then it's very likely you still need some guidance with the AC6 campaign! In any case, yeah this is it. HOW TO GET ALL ENDINGS IN ARMORED CORE 6 - as simply as I can put it, without any BS. It's a little tedious with three playthroughs, but it is what it is. Enjoy the journey!
