Namco Bandai has just announced a North American release date for the newly titled 3DS game Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy of 15th November. The publisher also promies touch-screen targeting and added control mechanics to dogfight and perform aerial acrobatics with ease. Carlson Choi, Vice President of Marketing, said about the game:
The three dimensional screen of the Nintendo 3DS really captures the immediate and visceral thrills of aerial combat and ACE COMBAT ASSAUL HORIZON LEGACY is the perfect showcase for that.
You can also check out six new screens below. Are you excited for this high-flying title?

Meh, there's Star Fox for this.
Looks cool!
I might pick it up if I have enough money.
WTH, another November game. When will companies get that we cant buy all the games we want in one month ><
does this mean that the add-on is coming before then? because this was one of the games that you use it for
So the second analogue will stay exclusive to Japan ?
iam buying this but does it have online
Was into flight sims in the past. Not now though. Except Star Fox and Pilotwings....
This looks pretty decent, if it has (decent) online play I may have to look into this!
It seems pretty cool
the trailer showed gameplay footage which didnt look like a typicall ace combat game so i am not hyped anymore for this game.
and this doesnt sound good:
"touch-screen targeting and added control mechanics to dogfight and perform aerial acrobatics with ease"
looks cool
Could be good. I doubt Namco would do a Ubi and put out a pile of stinking you know what for the 3DS version.
Do want.
The circle pad add-on is supposed to be compatible for this game, right? Yeah, I know it's optional but I would like the opportunity to try it out.
Day 1!
Enjoyed Ace Combat on the PSP. Now that I don't have the PSP this will be a nice addition to my soon growing 3DS collection
Brings back memories of F15 Strike Eagle II on my old Tandy computer, back in the dark ages.
The 3DS library is going to seem a lot more robust by the end of the year, that's for sure.
I'm really looking forward to this game, but online play would definitely bump this up to a day one purchase for me.
When I was looking at the screen shots the phrase "Highway to the Danger Zone!" kept repeating itself in my head. This is a must buy for me!
There's two typos (promises and assault) . This game seems pretty cool, though I already have Starfox, so I'll have to see how much money I have when this comes out.
Gyro? Online? I want details!
Really? 4 days from zelda? Bad move.
after pilotwings and now starfox64 i am not gonna be interested in a flying game in quite some time i would imagine. so not interested unless it gets crazy good scores from all reviewers
Which November game am I getting? Not this one, Mario 3D Land!
This looks Fantastic
Guys, Pilotwings and StarFox are very different from this lol.
day 1
Why does /amazon says it is going to be released on 6 December?
@Mati
Star Fox isn't enough. Need more games. I will get this Ace Combat game.
Why do ppl keep comparing it to Starfox...ok so they both feature aerial combat, but that's far as comparisons go. They're two completely different games, and I'll eventually try to get both
If this has online, I'll pick this up along with Star Fox. That is huge and this is supposed to be a good franchise. I agree with @Darkgamer that one's a arcade flight game, the other is a sim.
Yeah LOL at the people saying I already have star fox. This game is 10 times more intense then star fox. Just the speed alone makes it more intense. This game also looks very good. Haven't played ace combat in years though so it should be a fresh experience!
The big reason I'd consider this over Star Fox is, frankly, I've already played that to death on the N64 back in the day and on the Wii's Virtual Console. I also liked the Ace Combat series on the PS2, so this could be fun. I'd like to see more info when it's made available.
This is probably my most anticipated third party 3DS title coming out this year. Cant wait for some 3D dogfights!!!!!
Starfox... Ace Combat.... I think I'll go with this because I enjoyed one on them for the PS2
Any comment in this article including the phrase "Star Fox" in a comparative way, is so "noob". Sorry...
