Developed utilizing Unreal Engine 4 and trueSKY technology, Ace Combat 7 applies the latest evolution of its graphics engine in conjunction with the power of the latest generation of gaming consoles and PCs to create immersive aerial battlefields.

Fully rendered clouds fill the skies while highly detailed cityscapes enhance the sense of supersonic speed, setting the stage for highly exhilarating aerial battles. Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown will provide an arsenal of ultra-modern and near-future super weapons for players to wield, while presenting formidable enemies for pilots to vanquish in the air.

Aces who have proven their aerial combat prowess in Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown’s campaign mode can take their dogfighting skills online for furious online multiplayer battles.

Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown also marks the return of Sunao Katabuchi as the lead writer behind the fictional storyline that players will experience in the game. Previously, Sunao Katabuchi wrote the storylines for both Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies and Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War.

The new trailer revealed today features advanced planes in fight and now highlights the conflict between the Kingdom of Erusea and the Osean Federation with reports from the Erusea side.

The Osean Federation hasn’t respected the nation’s sovereignty by forcing construction of its giant space elevator on the Erusea’s territory. Princess Rosa Cossette D'Elise of the Kingdom of Erusea encouraged her citizens to fight and chaos started from that moment on. But the Osean Federation has many experienced pilots in their ranks.

PS4 players will be able to play a full campaign on the classic mode and an exclusive and dedicated experience with specific features developed for the Sony PlayStation VR

Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown is scheduled for take-off in 2018 for the PS4, Xbox One and PC.
