At the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct event held on April 2, 2025, a new game titled “Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion” was unveiled. This high-octane, fashionable mecha anime action game is actually a sequel to Daemon X Machina, a game that gained cult status on the Nintendo Switch in 2019.

Contrary to speculation, this game is not confined to the Nintendo Switch 2; instead, it’s set to debut simultaneously on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam on September 5, 2025.

What is Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion?

In this contest, you assume the role of a freelancer enlisted to aid humanity in turning the tide of a disastrous conflict against an oppressive ruling power called the Dominion of Axiom.

Beyond this, it’s additionally your responsibility to shield humanity against menacing extraterrestrial creatures known as the Immortals, who seek to destroy both parties for their insatiable appetite.

In order to complete your task, it’s essential that you put on a formidable battle suit known as the Arsenal. Utilize its devastating and mighty weaponry to obliterate the Immortals and the Sovereign Axiom.

The combat system appears incredibly engaging, the sleek anime design of characters and monsters is captivating, and the potential for customizing your mech-suit looks intriguing.

Nevertheless, can the forthcoming Xbox/PC game with its anime-inspired visuals and combat mechanics truly rival Armored Core 6 for a top spot among the greatest mecha action games on Xbox/PC platforms?
