This news hurts, as I used to love playing Ace Combat Infinity. However, since my PS3 stopped working, I couldn’t play it anymore. A fantastic game in its own right and easily one of the best Ace Combat games to date. As for the next chapter of Ace Combat, Ace Combat 7, there’s still no release date. All we know is that it will be released sometime in 2018 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
Update: Bandai released a thank you video for the announcement.
