Ace Combat 2 is a 1997 combat flight simulator video game developed and published for the PlayStation by Namco. The player controls one of 24 different fighter jets through 21 different missions with certain objectives to fulfill, such as protecting a base from enemy fire, intercepting a squadron of enemies, or taking down an aircraft carrier. It is the sequel to Air Combat and the second in the Ace Combat franchise, with gameplay being presented in a more arcade-like format. Conceived by Namco designer Masanori Kato, Ace Combat 2 was created out of Kato’s dissatisfaction with the original Air Combat, feeling from a technical standpoint it was severely lacking. Along with a small group of others, Kato set out to create a follow-up that greatly improved on the original, featuring improved graphics, a variety in missions, and providing a true sense of flight for the player. Missions were created to be exciting and fun to play, with the gameplay itself being designed to mimic the typical style of arcade games. The team used aircraft books and aviation magazines as reference material when designing new aircraft. Fighters were intentionally made to not be exact replicas of real-world fighters as it would make the game overly-complex for their target audience. Much of the music was provided by Kohta Takahashi, being heavily inspired by Top Gun. Ace Combat 2 was a commercial success, selling over 500,000 copies in Japan alone by May of 1998. It was commended by critics for its gameplay, graphics, variety in missions and for being a major improvement over its predecessor. Some also called it one of the best flight-sim games on the PlayStation. The lack of a multiplayer mode and its high-difficulty level were the subject of criticism. It was re-released as a budget title in Japan in 1999 under Sony’s The Best label, and was included in the 2005 compilation NamCollection for the PlayStation 2. A remake for the Nintendo 3DS, Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy, was released in 2011.
