Take to the Skies with the Latest Adventure in the High-Flying Air Combat Franchise

"Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War" thrusts players back in time, 15 years before the events of "Ace Combat(TM) 5," and reveals the events that led up to the last chapter of the franchise. Players will take on the role of a mercenary hired to fly for Ustio, a small country bordering Belka, and face off against rival pilots throughout the game.

"Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War" introduces rival pilots to the series’ traditional dogfighting action. Players will encounter highly skilled enemy pilots that they will engage throughout the course of the story. Adding even more tension to the game’s dramatic air battles, these rival pilots will utilize advanced battle tactics to attack the player while directing their own squadron.

“Players can once again be ace pilots in 'Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War' by flying authentic aircraft against rival pilots that are more cunning than ever,” said Yoshi Niki, Business Unit Director at Namco Hometek Inc. “The game’s storyline will add insight into some of the series’ greatest mysteries and the new gameplay elements will keep players strapped into their virtual cockpits for hours.”

• Advanced AI Changes the Action: Innovative Ace Style Gauge System factors the player’s style of flying and changes different facets of the game accordingly.
• Personalized Communications: Linked with the Ace Style Gauge System, the Radio Transmission System changes radio communications in real-time according to a player’s reputation. In-game messages from allies and opponents acknowledge the skill level of the player.
• Individualized Enemy Pilots: Brand new to the series, rival ace pilots give players a run for their money with individual flying styles and tactics that require players to elevate their skills to new heights.
• Enhanced Wingman Command: Wingman commands are now more advanced than ever as players coordinate battle tactics with their wingman.
• Retrospective Interviews: Cut-scene interviews of rival pilots comment on their encounters with the player, providing an in depth look into the enemy’s tactical mindset.
• VS Mode: Players dog-fight in head-to-head action against their friends to prove who is the true Ace in the group.
