I’m unironically very glad we’re getting another melodramatic super unrealistic Ace Combat game. Despite being a massive plane nerd I much prefer Ace Combat to something like DCS. First person cutscenes are interesting, I just hope that they don’t screw it up like they did with Assault Horizon.



I understand that Germany starting WW3 4 times in a row was getting a bit stale but Iran destroying USEA is kinda on the nose lmao.
There’s a lot of Top Gun Maverick style references in there too. The helmets with the callsigns, F-18 protagonist aircraft, fighting against in game Iran which has Su-57s. I just hope it’s good and not assault horizon 2.0 story wise.
