Can it be that they may wanna revive the classic Galaxian game as a HD remake added with dramatic storylines using Ace Combat engine ? Yeah, that's pretty much what I figured. The same thing happened in 2002, where Project Aces created a remake of Xevious using the Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies engine. It was never released; more details are available at Bacura. I feel like the same thing happened here, where Project Aces or the development team behind the Galaxian series used some Ace Combat engine and made a 3D Galaxian game (whether remake or brand new title; we don't know which). It's unfortunate that the details are being withheld, but this might mean that they're still in development stages with it, which means they might take it all the way. We'll have to see.

If it released, however, it's unlikely that Galaxian H would feature a lot of Ace Combat/Strangereal elements in it, or even be considered as a part of the Ace Combat or UGSF series, because not much attention has been given to either Strangereal or UGSF. I feel the only attachment it'd have to Ace Combat would be in the engine used, the fact that Keiki Kobayashi made that trailer music, and Kazutoki Kono seems to be involved in some way.

tl;dr I wouldn't expect too much. We'd really have to wait and see if this game is even being developed any further.
