Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve PS5

Ace Combat 8 PS5 opens on a fallen homeland and a broken navy. The Federation of Central Usea pins its last hope on a name that was never real, and you take on that borrowed legend aboard the aging carrier Endurance. Best of all, you fly to win back everything the Republic of Sotoa has taken.

PROJECT ACES, the longtime studio behind the series, built this new chapter. Ace Combat 8 PS5 pairs fast arcade dogfighting with a personal war story that follows you both in the cockpit and on the ground. Also, every mission ties back to the people fighting beside you.

Multiplayer and PS5 Features

Because Ace Combat Online expands the series’ biggest multiplayer mode yet, squads can team up or face off worldwide. Then cross-platform play keeps matchmaking fast regardless of where your friends play. Also, your custom air base carries over between missions and matches.

• Team up in co-op missions or compete through cross-platform online multiplayer
• Support up to 8 online players at once with PlayStation Plus
• Feel every maneuver through DualSense vibration and adaptive trigger support
• Load missions quickly with PS5 Pro Enhanced optimization
