ACE COMBAT 8 Wiki is an independent English-language fan reference for ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE, the combat flight action game by Project ACES and Bandai Namco Entertainment. We help pilots prepare for sorties with clearly sourced guides — no fluff, no invented facts.
What we cover
The launch lineup of 30+ aircraft and their four classes, special weapons and parts, the campaign and its setting in the 2029 Sotoa-Usea War, the ace squadrons of Strangereal, and ACE COMBAT ONLINE — the series' first online lobby with cross-platform Co-Op and PvP.
How we check information
Core facts come from the official Steam listing for app 2288340 and Bandai Namco's announcements, checked on September 28, 2026. Every article carries its last-checked date. Where the game itself hasn't been verified yet — full aircraft roster, Premium Ace Pass contents, mission specifics — the guides say so plainly instead of guessing.
What is still being verified
The game launches October 1-2, 2026. Mission-by-mission walkthroughs, achievement lists and multiplayer balance will be added after hands-on verification during launch week. Screenshots on this site come from the official Steam store assets.
Independent, openly accessible
This site has no connection to Bandai Namco Entertainment or Valve. Every guide is readable without an account. We do not claim a testing team, official endorsement or a daily update schedule.
