Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown is coming January 18 on Xbox One and PS4 (February 1 on Steam). I\u2019m ready for the cheesy story, awesome music, and fantastic gameplay. It\u2019s been too long since we\u2019ve seen a proper Ace Combat game. Hell, any flying game for that matter &#8211; at least on consoles.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s the launch trailer that dropped a couple of hours ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe class=\"zeen-lazy-load-base zeen-lazy-load\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"about:blank\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HnU9v1IE1nw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HnU9v1IE1nw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\nAce Combat 7 also comes with a handful of multiplayer modes. Bandai Namco talks up a Battle Royale mode, but it looks more like a traditional free-for-all mode. It doesn\u2019t look like there\u2019s any Battle Royale mechanics going on in the multiplayer trailer I linked below.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe class=\"zeen-lazy-load-base zeen-lazy-load\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"about:blank\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UtjO-rUIahM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UtjO-rUIahM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>January 14<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li> Panda Hero (PS4) <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>January 15<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The Walking Dead &#8211; The Final Season &#8211; Episode 3: Broken Toys (PS4, Xbox One, PC)<\/li><li>The Grand Tour Game (PS4, Xbox One)<\/li><li>Vane (PS4)<\/li><li>Smoke &amp; Sacrifice (PS4, Xbox One)<\/li><li>Panda Hero (PC)<\/li><li>Holy Potatoes!
