Santa Clara, Calif., (June 29, 2007) - Leading video games developer and publisher NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. announced today that its highly anticipated flight action title, Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation will hit store shelves nationwide on October 23, 2007. Exclusively for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation brings the popular Ace Combat series to the next generation with a massive multiplayer online experience, photorealistic high-def graphics, an all new story, and brand new gameplay that includes features like the Allied Support System and Dynamic Operations System, that radically change the way missions can be completed.
"Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation is the most robust Ace Combat game to date and will be a killer flight action game to own on the Xbox 360 this Holiday Season," Makoto Iwai, Senior Vice President and COO of NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. said. "With some of the most incredible and realistic HD graphics ever seen and extensive online multiplayer modes, there will be no other game out on the market like it."
Players will be in full control of the battlefield in Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation with the Allied Support System. This new gameplay mechanic allows players to call on a variety of allied vehicles including; fighter planes, tanks, heavy bombers and naval fleets. Each unit carries their own strengths and weaknesses into battle as they help even the odds against the swarming enemy. Allied forces react to the players level of success in real-time, with more skillful players bringing a more efficient fighting team of allies into battle.

The power of the Xbox 360 allows for a totally immersive living battlefield, where players will find more aggressive and smarter enemies in larger numbers than ever before. Calling upon allies with the new massive-scale Allied Support System will be the key for survival against such powerful foes.
