Marvelous USA released a new gameplay system overview video titled “Customization,” offering a deeper look at Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion ahead of its September 5, 2025, release for the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam.
This latest installment in the video series devoted to covering Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion, spotlighted the game’s robust customization options, highlighting the Arsenal, which is the fully customizable mechanized suit of armor. Players were shown five armor slots and six weapon slots, each capable of being outfitted with a wide range of ranged, melee, and explosive gear. Every piece of equipment came with its own distinct stats, opening up a deep pool of strategic combinations. This system allowed Outers, the augmented humans capable of piloting Arsenals and to tailor their loadouts to suit their unique combat styles.

Gear could be acquired in various ways, such as purchasing from vendors, looting hidden caches scattered across the battlefield, defeating enemies, or crafting items using data collected at the player’s home base. The more equipment an Outer obtained, the more tactical flexibility they gained when building loadouts for different missions and combat scenarios.
Developed under the direction of Kenichiro Tsukuda and featuring mechanical designs by the renowned Shoji Kawamori, Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion marked a bold evolution for the franchise. The game promised to deliver fast-paced, customizable mech action while exploring darker, more expansive sci-fi themes.

As a massive fan of the original Daemon X Machina title, everything that I’ve seen so far has made me very excited for what Marvelous has revealed. Especially since the first game was a massive hit for mecha fans, and provided that gameplay that had been missing ever since the Armored Core series, which has ironically been revived, so many years ago.
