Flight action game from Namco that lets players take part in air battles between the two superpowers Osea and Yuktobania. After attempting intercept of an unidentified aircraft, most of the 108th Tactical Fighter Squadron was destroyed. As the base scrambles its defenses and goes on red alert, you and your fellow elite fighter pilots are called up to protect your home nation of Osea. Take flight in the 5th installment of Namco's landmark air combat series, featuring ultra–realistic graphics, over 50 licensed aircraft and the all–new Wingman Command. Issue orders and coordinate group attacks. Your split–second decisions determine mission success or failure. The intriguing story spans over 30 missions and showcases exquisitely detailed environments, real–time weather effects and dynamic lighting. Features multiple game modes and loads of unlockable content for hours of additional flying excitement.
Even though many aerial dogfighting games have surfaced throughout the years, Namco's Ace Combat series has been peerless in almost every single respect. The previous four games had significant stylistic differences between them even though the basic gameplay mechanics remained unchanged. AC5 feels pretty close to Ace Combat 4 stylistically, although there is a lot more emphasis on the narration this time around. Read More »
