  1. Units - Segment responsible for player's weapons (R-Arm, L-Arm, R-Back, L-Back)

  2. Frame - Offers key attributes besides damage (head, core, arms, or legs)
  3. Inner - Makes the mech move and produces energy (Booster, Fire Control System, Generator)

Of course, Armored Core 6 offers the most basic customization option — your mech's color. In the game, you can change the color of the individual parts of your robot. You can have a color mixture resembling a parrot and be as creative as you want. Further, you can use the RGB values to get that perfect hue for a perfect design, but just make sure to save it for future use as well.

Armored Core 6 also has an option to utilize the color schemes to be shared with another player.


Decals and emblems

Using the presets of the game, you can create your own decals to give a little flare to your mech. There is a wide selection of emblems in Armored Core 6, including cats, shells, and unicorns. These may be small touches to the overall aesthetic, but it just goes to show how much the creators love details.

Changing or creating emblems is pretty easy. First, pick Garage and then press the Triangle on PlayStation. If you’re using an Xbox controller, you might want to press Y, which will bring up the Display License Menu. From there, you can select any emblem that you can create on your own or import from other players.

Furthermore, you can change the size of your decals as you add your emblem, and even have multiple decals if you want. The emblems and decals are part of your Mercenary profile, so you get to choose a design that suits your taste most.

Another feature in Armored Core 6 Garage is the Image Editor, where you can create a custom emblem from the ground up. By using this, you can modify an existing image in your collection, or even import an emblem designed by a friend.

You'll find a wide range of shapes and templates in this feature that you can combine, resize, and recolor to craft your unique emblems to perfection.
