What it is for

The questions people hit first with this game are practical ones: will my PC run it, why does it crash, where is Ace Combat Zero, which jet do I get next. The site answers those with tools and tables, starting with the PC check and the aircraft list.

Where the facts come from

Specs, prices and platform details come from the Steam, PlayStation and Xbox store listings. Aircraft, characters, difficulty and online mode come from Bandai Namco's own pages and announcements. Fixes and first-week details come from what players report, and are reworded when the game changes. The sources page lists the main ones.
