It’s been some time since we last heard from action-packed sky-flierAce Combat 7, but would-be pilots will certainly be feeling the need for speed come May 26, when Bandai Namco drops a batch of brand new DLC based on Paramount Pictures’ upcoming blockbusterTop Gun: Maverick.
TheAce Combat 7 — Top Gun: Maverick Aircraft SetDLC adds two new skyfighters to the game’s hanger. First up is the stunning F/A-18E Super Hornet, as flown byTop Gun‘s white-teethed, cheesy-grinnin’ hero Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, portrayed in the movie series by alien daredevil Tom Cruise. Oh, and for those of you who truly want to take it right-in-to-the danger zone, then it seems that a replica of Maverick and Goose’s F-14A Tomcat from the 1986 movieis also included.
The trailer below spotlights the F/A-18E Super Hornet, as well as the movie’s fret-wanking theme.
