Jan 17, 2024 4:11 PM

The award-winning flight simulation game 'Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown' is set to take off on the Nintendo Switch platform on July 11, as announced by the publisher Bandai Namco. Previously launched in January 2019 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, the title is finally making its way to Switch enthusiasts over five years later with its Deluxe Edition.

'Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown Deluxe Edition' includes the original storyline, six pieces of downloadable content (DLC), and several special bonus items previously released across other platforms. Notably, the Deluxe Edition for the Switch is, however, missing some of the additional content provided in other versions, such as the 'Top Gun: Maverick Aircraft' set, which is scheduled to be sold separately at a later date.

The publisher has catered to fans by releasing an extensive new trailer showcasing the game's Switch gameplay. To further entice potential buyers, a comparison video highlighting the differences between the PlayStation and Switch versions is also available on YouTube.

Totally stoked to see 'Ace Combat 7' make the leap to the Switch — it's about time our joy-cons get a taste of those high-flying dogfights. Just a heads-up to the fellow aces out there, keep an eye out for that separate 'Top Gun: Maverick' pack; hate to see you miss out on any bonus content if you're aiming for the complete experience

Ace Combat 7's leap to the Switch gives gamers the chance to dogfight on the go, which is a big win for flight sim fans looking for that adrenaline rush during their commute. Just a bummer they're holding back content like the 'Top Gun: Maverick' set, making Switch pilots wait a bit longer to feel the need for speed.
