New Ace Combat 7 trailer

[ChupathingyX]

A new trailer for Ace Combat 7 has been released for E3, delivering a few new and interesting pieces of information regarding the story.


A gameplay demo (including VR demo) will be shown at E3, and the game is scheduled to be released sometime in 2018 (it was originally set for a 2017 release but has been delayed) for PS4, Xbox One and PC (the first one since Assault Horizon).

Interesting indeed. Kingdom of Eurusia, with that digital map of Usea mostly red. What the hell has happened!

It got delayed? Damn, I was really looking forward to finally having an air combat game again. Going to need to do some background catch up though, because I recognize those names but I can't remember what the history is.

Kestrel 2, Osea and plenty of shoot of the crater from the meteor of AC4 (or maybe those are the nuke belka set off). They're clearly going back to the PS2 era of ace combat, brings tears of joy to my eyes.

There also not skimping out on near future setting, with plenty of super plane, space elevator and laser weapon. Plus a few shoot of what look like a neural link or something for the pilot, maybe bridging the gap to electrosphere. Maybe a remake of that if this game does well?

Hype intensify!!! (for like a year, sigh...)

Hell yeah!! we're going back to Stranglereal. Kickass trailer and I'm really loving the music though I guess that's to be expected of Ace Combat games. Only thing thay bothers me a little bit is that the Arsenal bird is a bit mundane as far as AC super weapons go. Hopefully it can do more than spit out hundreds of drones.

This time it looks like Osea and Eurasia are going at it. In an interesting reversal of roles it seems like the Oseans will be the antagonists and the Eurasians the protagonists this time around. Looks like we may also see the return of Stonehenge

A shame the game got delayed but whatever I can bear the wait. Interested to see the game in VR despite the fact I'll most likely not have one by the time the game comes out. Kinda tempted to get this for PC if it has decent joystick support.

Given the trailer's focus on the Usea Continent (Map of Usea, Stonehenge, and Anderson or possibly Ryker crater) I'm gonna assume the first crater we see is from the Ulysses Asteroid though this is probably one we haven't seen yet. Even though Osea will be in the game I don"t see the point of bringing up the anything related to the Belkan War unless remnants from that conflict show up for some reason.

Oh yeah, I forgot that AC3 takes place after all the other AC games. Wonder if we'll see Neucom incorporated or General Resource Limited. Would like it if we could at least get a proper localized version of AC3.

Eurusia and Osea eh? I'll admit, I normally don't get hype for non gameplay trailers but the AC7 ones are particularly juicy. Makes me wanna crack open 5 and Zero again.
Boy I hope they have the MiG 31 in this one, I need it in delicious HD.

Also, somebody keep an eye on Belka, lest she builds a space laser and nukes herself again.

And is it just me, or does that look like an older Grimm/Archer at around 1:45? (sorry, on mobile so it's hard to see much detail on my screen)

I could be, however the previous trailer seems to indicate that he's an Erusian POW being held at the same facility the female Eruisan pilot is held at. Now its possible that after AC6 the Demons of Razgriz changed their identities and Grim moved to Erusia though that's a bit of a stretch.

Indeed, the mostly likely scenario is that Erusea is fighting the other countries on the Usea continent. Which is weird because Osea is on an entirely different continent. It's possible that the rest of Usea allied itself with Osea which would be an interesting development for the Strangereal universe considering Osea's past relationship with Usean territories.

I love the ending with the sinking of the warship, they were my favorite non-flying enemy in 6, and the PSP games. Even in AC Infinity, I primarily used a jet with LASM. If only they had the budget of war thunder, player-made maps, and more planes, and more weapons. Hopefully, they keep all the assets from AC infinity to build off of.
