Armored Core 6's biggest boss is so huge, it'd be its own landmark on Elden Ring's world map
Armored Core 6's late game Ice Worm boss is a big guy, absolutely dwarfing the player in a way not dissimilar to old FromSoft bosses like Sekrio's Great Worm or Dark Souls' sad sack lava guy punching bag, Ceaseless Discharge. As prolific FromSoft dataminer Zullie the Witch demonstrates though, the Ice Worm puts all those other bosses to shame in terms of sheer size.
As Zullie's previously shown, Elden Ring and Armored Core 6 not only share the same engine, but scale for their models as well.

You could ride Torrent on this thing like a highway, and one of our sweet little baby Tarnished is barely the size of the Ice Worm's spiked teeth it uses to burrow through the ground.

It would be like pitting Goku against a daycare. «My name is Malenia, Blade of Miquella?» Well these are two VP-66L Laser Shotguns, each longer than you are tall. You could sort out notorious perv Mohg, The Lord of Blood with a single volley of the
