Ace Combat Video Game Series

Action 18 January 2019

An arcade flight simulator and continuation of the popular series published by Bandai Namco. Like its predecessors, Ace Combat 7 is set in alternative timeline, in which there are different countries, and humans have constructed unique flying units. Game focuses on the story, which we learn both through events during missions and many cutscenes. The gameplay is mostly arcade, with only a few simulation’s features. Due to that, realism has to move over and make space for dynamic and eye-catching sky fights, including battles with powerful bosses. Each available plane flies slightly differently, resulting in a more varied experience. Ace Combat 7 offers a story campaign for one player and multiplayer mode. Developers made use of Unreal Engine 4 and also added support of PlayStation VR goggles.

An arcade combat flight game and a special edition of Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy for Nintendo 3DS. The game is one of the first productions utilizing the extra functions of the New 3DS, such as extra buttons and second analog stick. You play as a Special Tactical Fighter Squadron Scarface pilot and participate in Operation Fighter's Honor, during which you have to stop the countries of the southern Usea from joining the Osean Federation. The production allows you to pilot many planes, such as Boeing F-15SE Silent Eagle or Sukhoi PAK FA, and to complete an expansive single-player campaign or bonus missions in the challenge mode. The arcade-like flight model and frequent fights make the game resemble shooter productions more than most PC flight simulators. Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy Plus features 3D visuals, which are very high-quality for a 3DS game, both during the actual gameplay and spectacular replays.
