From the makers of LOVE, DEATH + ROBOTS, the 15 episodes will bring Armored Core, Concord, Crossfire, Dungeons & Dragons, Exodus, Honor of Kings, Mega Man, New World: Aeternum, PAC-MAN, various PlayStation Studios games, Sifu, Spelunky, The Outer Worlds, Unreal Tournament and Warhammer 40,000 to TV.
A star-studded cast includes Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kevin Hart, Temuera Morrison, Ariana Greenblatt, Emily Swallow, Gabriel Luna, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and more. But the highlight looks set to be Keanu Reeves in the action-packed mecha combat Armored Core.
In the teaser, we see a day in the life of Reeves' mercenary mech pilot character, which looks set to add a much-more character focused angle to the Armored Core franchise, which has tendered to focus more on the bigger world and conflicts of civilizations.
