Why Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon can trigger motion sickness
Combat is quick, and the camera has to keep up with a mech that boosts and turns. Sportskeeda notes that the game can be fast-paced at places. PCGamingWiki says Depth of Field set to Maximum is overly aggressive and even blurs objects close to the camera, and it lists where to turn it down. The field of view is not in the menus: PCGamingWiki lists a community camera plugin that needs Easy Anti-Cheat disabled.
- Motion blur over a fast-moving camera
- Depth of Field set to Maximum, which blurs even nearby objects
- A field of view that the menus cannot change

Frequently asked questions
How do I turn down motion blur in Armored Core VI?
On PC, open the System menu, then Graphics Settings, then Quality Settings (Detailed). Sportskeeda's settings guide lists Motion Blur with the other quality settings there. No source opened for this page shows the console menus.
Can I change the field of view in Armored Core VI?
Not in the menus. PCGamingWiki lists a community plugin called AC6 Camera Tweaks for PC and says Easy Anti-Cheat must be disabled to use it.
Why does Armored Core VI look so blurry?
PCGamingWiki says Depth of Field set to Maximum is overly aggressive and blurs even objects close to the camera, which gives a soft overall image. Setting it below Maximum in Quality Settings (Detailed) removes that effect.
