Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve

Push Square: 8 / 10 by Stephen Tailby

Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve is the most sure-footed the series has ever been, confidently refining its punchy aerial gameplay and doubling down on a more cinematic story. While there are some wobbles here and there, the much improved presentation, charming character performances, varied campaign, and deeper multiplayer experience offer up a sequel that makes a textbook landing.

We had to wait seven years for the release of Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve, but it was well worth it. The story campaign is everything I expected as a fan of the series – its minor flaws in no way detract from the fact that this is a bigger, better and more visually stunning game than its predecessor. It doesn’t break anything that worked before; instead, it takes the already high quality of the previous instalments and raises it even further – I’m absolutely delighted.

Hardcore Gamer: 4.5 / 5 by Adam Beck

Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve is everything we could have hoped for. It features a much longer, compelling story, a ton of different fighter jets at your disposal and some of the best combat in any air combat game.
