Hands-on report — Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve

Game Ace Pro 0 0

Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve begins with a losing war. After a lightning strike by the Republic of Sotoa, the armed forces of the Federation of Central Usea are struggling to survive — and as an FCU fighter pilot, you’re joining the remnants of a military that’s barely holding on.

After playing through several of the campaign missions in Ace Combat 8, I got a sense of how developer Project Aces is telling its story of a desperate aircraft carrier crew trying to keep the battle going, and how you’ll rise to become a hotshot fighter ace, and a source of hope, for the embattled FCU.

(For Southeast Asia) Marvel’s Wolverine: new gameplay, story details from State of Play 

Game Ace Pro 0 0

The wait is over! We have an all-new gameplay video for Marvel’s Wolverine, along with details about our gameplay, characters, and story from the recent State of Play. We’re also excited to announce you can pre-order Marvel’s Wolverine starting today. 

But first, dive into our new trailer. 

(For Southeast Asia) Marvel’s Wolverine: new gameplay, story details from State of Play 

Setting the stage: our gameplay trailer 

Let’s not mince words: Marvel’s Wolverine is a brutal, violent, and action-packed single-player adventure from our team at Insomniac Games, in collaboration with Marvel Games. It cuts deeper than claw combat alone, with an emotionally charged original story centered on a comic book icon: James “Logan” Howlett, aka Wolverine.

To set up our Extended Gameplay Trailer, Logan is tailing a group of mutants that have been hunted and captured by the Reavers, a guns-for-hire cybernetic militia. The Reavers have plans to deliver the mutants to their client, Bolivar Trask – a billionaire industrialist driven by a fanatical belief in human superiority. We also introduce another major player in Logan’s journey: Jean Grey, a powerful telekinetic and emergent leader of the captured mutants.

Today’s State of Play packed in over 60 minutes of updates, announcements, and reveals. It opened with a closer look at Marvel’s Wolverine and concluded with the reveal of God of War Laufey. Between those two heavyweights, a barrage of release dates, fresh looks, and surprises. The rest of your 2026 is looking stacked (and action packed!) with Control Resonant, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Silent Hill: Downfall amongst others all confirming launch dates for later this year. And 2027? Shaping up quite nicely as well. 

As ever, you can rewatch the show in full below. After that, get the headlines for every game announced during its runtime, watch their full trailers, and discover more about these upcoming titles with deep dives into story, gameplay and more in a selection of dedicated PlayStation Blog articles, written by the games’ creators*.

God of War Laufey 

Death was supposed to be the end, but for Laufey (Faye), warrior and wife to Kratos, a new adventure is just beginning. Awakening unexpectedly in a strange land after her funeral, Faye discovers the plans she put in place to protect Kratos and Atreus are now at risk.


To save the ones she loves, Faye must fight through the afterlife of the gods — the Everywhen — where ruthless gods from across mythology vie for power in a land overflowing with dangerous magic.

Until Dawn 2 is coming to PS5 in 2027

Game Ace Pro 0 0

Back in 2015, Until Dawn arrived on PlayStation 4, and we all fell (and screamed) in love with this instant classic. Now, we’re beyond excited to finally announce an all-new sequel for PS5… and if that’s not enough, we’ve got the world’s first trailer, right here, just for you.

Until Dawn 2 is coming to PS5 in 2027

Until Dawn 2 is a standalone experience, featuring a brand new cast, a whole new world to explore, and true to form, a modern horror experience packed with intrigue, emotion, twists, and the kind of choices that will keep you up at night. Your decisions still shape the story: who falls victim, and who survives Until Dawn…

Brand new story

Our cast this time is a crew of ghost hunters, the faces behind the wildly popular paranormal channel, Dead True.. Only, well… they’ve never actually seen anything supernatural. The scares they are known for are, let’s say, a little staged. But all that changes when for the very first time, they come face-to-face with real horrors and must start living up to their reputation to survive until dawn.
