* SequelDifficultySpike: Missions feature more intense enemies and tricky situations that will test the limits of your piloting abilities, weapon choice, heat management and so on.

The Silent Line, the corporation's skirmishes, civil unrest in the still-inhabited Layered and the efforts of the mysterious Artificial Intelligence Office to distribute and promote the use of AI technology have created a fertile market for a new generation of Global Cortex Ravens to leave their mark-including you.
A MissionPackSequel to ''Armored Core 3'', ''Silent Line'' massively increases your AC building options with a whooping 198 new AC parts (though a fair amount of these are "clone" variants with slightly tweaked stats). Left and right arm weapons can now be destroyed during combat, some weapons being specifically designed to induce this. The AI training feature from ''VideoGame/ArmoredCoreMasterOfArena'' returns, letting you create your own AI pilot and develop its fighting styles by fighting against it or copying your data from arena matches.

The seventh game in Creator/FromSoftware's ''VideoGame/ArmoredCore'' series, released in 2003 for the UsefulNotes/Playstation2.
It's been a few years since [[VideoGame/ArmoredCore3 the fall of The Controller]] and the corporations have undertaken aggressive resettlement and development of the surface. Their efforts have been repeatedly stymied by the so-called Silent Line – an unexplored distant expanse no expedition has returned from. As the issue exacerbates the existing struggles between the corporations, onlookers find themselves asking if all that was gained could be lost.
The Silent Line, the corporation's skirmishes, civil unrest in the still-inhabited Layered and the efforts of the mysterious Artificial Intelligence Office to distribute and promote the use of AI technology have created a fertile market for a new generation of Global Cortex Ravens to leave their mark-including you.

An UpdatedRerelease titled ''Armored Core Silent Line Portable'' was released in 2010 for the UsefulNotes/PlayStationPortable. This version features extra parts, a revamped user interface based on that of ''VideoGame/ArmoredCoreFormulaFront'''s, the ability to store five Armored Core designs instead of three, and a bonus Arena opponent plucked from the ''Armored Core: Brave New World'' novel.
