New Trailers for Kingmakers & ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE
by John Papadopoulos · DSOGamingtinyBuild Games and Bandai Namco have released new trailers for Kingmakers and ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE. As such, I’ve decided to share both of them in one article.
Kingmakers is an action-strategy sandbox game with thousands of enemies on screen. In this game, players travel back 500 years to medieval England to change the course of a bloody war. The game’s biggest feature is its ability to put thousands of enemies on screen at once. Even better, you can use modern weapons to take them down. For example, you can use an AK-47 to shoot knights. You can also use grenades and rocket launchers to cause massive chaos on the battlefield.
As the devs have noted, every soldier on the battlefield is controlled by a next-gen multi-threaded AI that controls their decision-making, pathfinding, and loyalty. This, combined with a unique procedural animation system, will allow Kingmakers to offer an unprecedented level of character and combat fidelity.
Players will be able to switch between two different ways of playing with ease. They can fight in the middle of the action or give orders like a commander. This switch happens in real time, which means you don’t have to pause or stop the game to do it. It’s smooth and fast, so you can control the battle your way.
This latest trailer goes into more detail about its gameplay mechanics. It’s an 11-minute trailer, so be sure to watch it as it packs a lot of gameplay footage. Sadly, though, there is still no ETA for when it will come out.
On the other hand, ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE is the latest part in the Ace Combat series. Players will step into the cockpit and take flight as an elite pilot across stunning skies. They will enter intense dogfights, eliminate threats, and rise through gripping missions to earn their wings.
ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE will be using Unreal Engine 5. As such, the Campaign Mode promises to have stunning visuals with dynamic multi-layered cloudscapes that capture the majesty of living skies.
The game will also have first-person scenes that will reveal your pilot’s story through breathtaking cinematics. As such, you will experience the pressure of command, the weight of decisions, and the bonds forged in battle. Between missions, you will bond with your squad members, rise to meet adversity, and prove yourself as a true ace.
Bandai Namco will release ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE on October 2. You can also find its official PC system requirements here.
Enjoy!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
