Originally released at the start of 2019, Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown puts players in the pilot seat of a fighter jet as they take on the role of Trigger. The game is set in an alt-reality Earth in a location called Strangereal, where the Osean Federation and the Kingdom of Erusea have descended into war.

While players would likely be thrilled to just have the singleplayer content, the Nintendo Switch version will also include the multiplayer component, which allows for two to eight players to duke it out in dogfights.

One final thing to note about the Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown Deluxe Edition is that any content not included in this bundle will be available to purchase later on. Players can expect to jet into the skies on Nintendo Switch on July 11, 2024.
