Bandai Namco today released a new trailer for Ace Combat 8: Wings of Tef, focusing for the first time on the online multiplayer part of the new series. Progress and reward systems are also highlighted as you compete in the online lobby with up to 100 players from around the world.

As the game progresses, additional emergency missions will be unlocked and available for a limited time. Emergency Flight Missions feature a squad of four dogfighting with a squadron of dangerous NPC air forces. Emergency sorties pit eight pilots against the iconic giant weapons from the series’ history. Some missions allow you to relive boss fights from previous installments.
Online multiplayer also includes limited-time PvP events, including 4v4 team battles and 8-player deathmatch.
