Armored Core 6 allows players to get some cool mech-on-mech action, with some wallpaper-worthy moments that you can get through the photo mode. The feature was revealed in a “Special Briefing” live stream that aired on the official Japanese PlayStation account on YouTube. This is one of the first FromSoftware games to feature a photo mode, something fans sorely missed in the developer’s Elden Ring series. Armored Core 6 players have the ability to pause the game at any moment during the action. While such an option may seem like a given for most games, this feature was not present in all FromSoftware titles. While Elden Ring, Dark Souls and Bloodborne did not allow players to pause normally Sekiro did allow players to do so. 

The Photo Mode is easily accessible at virtually any time during the game through some simple commands. Here is all you need to know about how to use Photo Mode in Armored Core 6.
