Namco are softly tickling the chins of plane-lovers yet again, with the newly-announced Ace Combat Assault Horizon set for release in 2011 for both Xbox 360 and PS3. “Never before has aerial combat been so fast, so in-your-face and so vicious. It’s time to set the sky on fire.” Ouch.
But wait, there’s more. The developers apparently wanted “planes that tore apart limb from limb right in front of your face, spewing their oil lifeblood across the sky.” And they also wanted to “scrape the streets and dodge the steel skyscrapers of real world cities at blistering speeds, in an enthralling war drama that spanned the globe with a web of intrigue.”
Their mission is also to enable players to “pick up the controller and become deadly combat pilots in seconds, pulling off breathtaking kills at impossible speeds, and doing battle online in a multiplayer sky littered with fiery supersonic debris.”
And to top it off: “What they wanted was steel carnage in the sky.”
