During Ace Combat’s 25th anniversary program, Bandai Namco and ILCA announced the development of a new Ace Combat game.
IlCA is the developer behind the upcoming The Idolmaster: Starlit Season, as well as Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Shining Pearl. He has also been involved in the development of a number of other games, including cinematic and environmental production for Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown, joint graphics development for Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age, and more.
Kazutoki Kono, producer of the Ace Combat series, said: “We have started work on a new project of the Ace Combat series. As the Project Aces team celebrated the game’s 25th anniversary, we realized that we have many fans of all tastes. Our small team cannot handle this new game alone, so we want to greatly expand the Ace Combat team.”
Kono added: “We are partnering with ilca for the Ace Combat series. We hope this opportunity will provide more staff to the Project Aces team.”
