It's been a minute since Armored Core 6 seized the reins as the poster boy of the mecha genre, and while there's hardly a shortage of new titles lined up to take its place, few are enjoying their moment in the sunlight like Mecha BREAK at the moment. Following the release of its showcase trailer at the Xbox Games Showcase 2024, the Amazing Seasun brainchild has made considerable headway in terms of being viral. Taking over as the talk of the town in the mecha category for now, Mecha BREAK highlights the importance of nailing an entry timeline that doesn't directly compete with a giant franchise like Armored Core but takes advantage of the consciousness it raised for a niche like mecha games.
