Project Wingman, Ace Combat-inspired arcade flight game, looks stunning in latest VR gameplay footage

It’s been a while since our last look on Project Wingman; the arcade flight game that is powered by Unreal Engine 4 and is heavily inspired by the Ace Combat series. A couple of days ago, RB-D2 released a new gameplay video showing 10 minutes from its latest build in VR.

In case you weren’t aware of, Project Wingman is an independently developed combat flight action game to be released on PC with an emphasis on fun and refined gameplay, true-to-its-roots inspirations, and an engaging single player experience.

The game will feature fast-paced challenging gameplay and players will dogfight, strike, and fly through combat zones based off an alternate history of Earth. The final version will also come with 20 different aircraft and over 40 unique weapons, support for Virtual Reality headsets and extensive customizable controls.

We strongly suggest watching the following video as it looks really great. Okay, it’s not looking as hot as Ace Combat 7 (at least from this gameplay video) but a) it supports VR and b) it doesn’t seem to be plagued by the awful smoothing issues that are found in Bandai Namco’s latest title.

Enjoy!

  1. Looks like it could be great in VR. A sort of modern-day After Burner in VR? Hell yes, take my money! A damned shame that After Burner Climax never made it to PC.

  2. This looks really good. It’s so nice to see some quality flight sims making its way to PC. Especially story driven ones. Voice acting seems pretty solid. Doubt it’ll have any cutscenes that rivals those from the Ace Combat franchise but I’ll be keeping my eyes on this one anyway.

  3. Thanks to VR low resolution we will enjoy the great fun of Falcon on Atari ST again while trying to spot that bad pixel/jet on the screen !
