The Ace Combat franchise is an action flight simulator video game series developed and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. At first glance, it may seem like your typical pilot-and-shoot, but longtime enthusiasts of the series are aware of the depth and history that brew within each title. For example, most of the in-game aircrafts are, indeed, accurate or slightly remodeled interpretations of present-day military planes, while a few others are inspired by actual prototypes that never made it to the battlefield. Unexpectedly, there is even a storyline and subtle clues that connect each installment from the main Ace Combat series to one another.

To date, the franchise has so far published a whopping 17 titles across multiple platforms with an 18th – Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown – currently in development, which is set to release sometime 2018.
