We take to the skies to help the remnants of the FCU regain ground and part of their lives after taking on the mantle of the Ace Pilot known as the Wings of Theve. Watch as we take on numerous missions, dogfighting other jet fighters and even take on super weapons in Bandai Namco’s Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve.
ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE takes pilots back to the war-torn skies of Strangereal for another cinematic campaign packed with high-speed dogfights and spectacular aerial battles. Set in 2029, the Federation of Central Usea has been devastated by an invasion from the Republic of Sotoa, leaving its military scattered and its homeland occupied. Rescued by the ageing aircraft carrier Endurance, players are given the legendary title “Wings of Theve” and joined by three new wingmen as they take to the skies to reclaim their country and become the symbol of hope the FCU desperately needs.
Take control of an extensive selection of real-world fighter aircraft and engage enemies across enormous 360-degree battlefields filled with dynamic weather and multi-layered cloud formations. Choose aircraft and special weapons for each sortie, upgrade fighters with customizable parts, command wingmen in real time, and tackle air-to-air, air-to-ground, naval and massive superweapon encounters. Beyond the campaign, ACE COMBAT Online delivers the largest multiplayer experience in series history, featuring its own progression system, cooperative and competitive missions, cross-play and an Air Base lobby where pilots from around the world can meet before taking to the skies.
