Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve is scheduled for PlayStation 5 on October 2. Its Story Mode will use mostly first-person cutscenes alongside limited player responses and squad commands.
Most Story Mode cutscenes are presented from a first-person perspective, and the announcement says DualSense haptics support those moments.
Players can answer occasional yes-or-no questions and use controller inputs to look around or respond during cutscenes.
Players can direct squadmates to attack targets, return to formation, or provide cover.
