An example of a close-range pursuit in Assault Horizon
The Close Range Assault System (終了範囲アサルト) is one of the main additions featured in the upcoming Ace Combat: Assault Horizon.
Details
Despite Assault Horizion's relatively short existence (from August 9 onwards), a behind-the-scenes interview with Namco producer Kazutoki Kono shows the simple core of the CRAS concept: unlike previous games, which were mostly focused on radar-enhanced long range combat, Assault Horizon instead concentrates on close range, high-speed pursuits, this increasing the game's general immersion into the action. The main objective of the CRA is not only to show the new destruction engine of Assault Horizon, but to truly involve the player in close and personal dogfights with their targets.
