Incidentally, Bandai Namco published a dedicated interview with the developers of the game, and it contains a couple of interesting nuggets.
Brand Director Kazutoki Kono mentioned that he would like to release a new game to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series in 2025. He then added laughing that considering that it took 12 years between Ace Combat 6 and Ace Combat 7, we may be running out of time. Of course, it’s worth mentioning that this represents Kono-san’s views, so we shouldn’t take it as an announcement or a promise for now.
Producer Manabu Shimomoto also teased that the team is also working on a new free update to keep the fans happy, and they will be able to share more information in the near future.
Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown is currently available for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
