Namco Bandai Games is soon to release “Ace Combat Xi: Skies of Incursion” for iPhone and iPod touch on the Apple App Store in Winter 2009.
In the game, players can get stuck in to a first-person flight sim mode, or take it outside the cockpit in third-person flight action mode. Both modes feature Hi-res graphics, multiple HUDs, and real satellite topographic imagery from Japan Space Imaging Corporation, apparently!
Developed by the same team that did the console versions, Project Ace, Ace Combat is one of the best-selling air combat franchises in the world, having sold over 10 million games since the original game launched in 1995.
As noted above – Ace Combat Xi: Skies of Incursion will be available soon on the Apple App Store.

About The Author

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
