Look the part
Don’t you just love Friday releases? It’s so freeing to be able to stay up late with a new game knowing full well you can continue where you left off the next day (and catch up on lost sleep another time). As a reviewer, I much prefer Tuesday launches — they typically provide a less-stressful schedule with the way coverage embargoes line up — but as a player, I cherish those comfy Friday game debuts.
For many of you, today is Ace Combat 7 day, and it’s been a long time coming. I’m most curious to crack into the oft-touted PlayStation VR mode, but I also worry I’ll burn through it way too quickly. It sounds like it’s a really compelling virtual-reality experience, albeit one that’s over after a single sitting. There’s also talk of a suspiciously flat dog. Meeting that sweet pooch is my next-highest priority.
If you’re in a high-flying sorta mood, you might want to nab this Ace Combat 7 dynamic theme for PS4, which is similar but not quite the same as the one given to people who pre-ordered the game. This particular dynamic theme (pictured below) has soothing background music and, best of all, it’s free.
As for Destructoid’s Ace Combat 7 review, Josh is applying the finishing touches. Sit tight!
