Armored Core 2 Hints XII (PS2)

A long time has passed since the events of the first game in the series. To be more precise, more than sixty-seven years have gone by. Zio Matric, which is the second biggest corporation on Earth, is trying to acquire the plans of a research base on Mars, plans that date back to before the time of the Great Destruction. The aim of the plan is to terraform Mars and make it more Earth-like.

As Zio begins to transfer research teams to the surface of Mars, that work both on the atmosphere and on the surface, other important corporations also learn about the plans that Zio Matrix has and decide to follow the initial corporation to Mars. With them, they bring the big competitive fight that has already existed on Earth and, of course, the mercenaries of the Nerves Concord.

You are one of the Ravens. You want the money and money is only obtained through fighting. You will start with a basic AC and then you have to go through the first mission, a trial, which only involves taking down MTs. After this initial mission, the player gets a registration with the above mentioned Nerves Concord, which is a mercenary outfit in all but in name. As you get more missions and you complete them, you will also advance in the story of the game. If the campaign is not good enough for you, then you can pop up in the Arena, where matches against more than 50 other bots are available.
