Ubisoft today officially announced that it will publish From Software’s mech-sim Armored Core for Answer in North America.

Slated for a September 2008 release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, players assume the role of a lone mercenary armed with cutting-edge military robot technology and choose their side from two war-waging factions, the League and ORCA.

For Answer promises a wealth of mech customization options, along with a online-enabled cooperative mode supporting up to eight players. Additionally, the game will include a veteran and beginner skill set, the latter of which features “new intuitive controls” tailored towards newcomers of the series.
