Hold onto your joysticks, gamers! Humble Games and Sector D2 just dropped some major heat with a stealth launch of Project Wingman: Frontline 59 on PlayStation VR2 and PlayStation 5. If you loved the OG Project Wingman, buckle up. The new installment brings all that high-flying action into the virtual realm, complete with fresh missions crafted for VR gameplay.
True Ace or Grounded Pilot? Prove Your Worth
In Project Wingman: Frontline 59, you’re not just sitting pretty—you’re in the cockpit of Earth’s baddest fighter jets in a war-ravaged world. The game challenges you to rise to ace status through high-stakes dogfights and full-blown ground assaults. Evade devastating railguns, geothermal munitions, and tackle mechanized fortresses while you lay waste with gatling guns and wing-mounted rocket launchers.
New Battlefields Await in Solo Campaign
Gear up for a scorched-earth solo campaign that takes you to uncharted territory. Navigate the icy currents of the Bering Strait, rain fire over the Yellowstone magma fields, and survive against overwhelming odds.
Six Fresh VR Missions for Total Immersion
Clock in more airtime with six new VR missions. Engineered with virtual reality in mind, the missions deliver an extra 2 to 3 hours of new gameplay on PlayStation VR2, and yeah, you can play it on PS5 without a headset too.
Aerial Martial Arts: Skill Over Everything
Forget about spray and pray; this game demands skill. The gameplay emphasizes aerial tactics, positioning, and seamless flight maneuvers. It’s all about those in-the-moment dogfighting decisions that separate rookies from true aces.
Conquest Mode: Rogue Elements Meet RPG
If that ain’t enough, there’s also Conquest Mode. Fight your way through enemy hordes, elite squadrons, and menacing bosses. The mode fuses elements from roguelikes and RPGs, making for a territory-capture gameplay that’s as deep as it is intense.
PlayStation VR2 Perks for Next-Level Realism
For those rocking a PlayStation VR2, get ready for a more tactile experience. The headset vibrations make you feel the enemy flybys, and eye tracking tech helps you switch targets like a next-gen ace pilot.
Meet the Minds Behind the Madness
For the uninitiated, Humble Games is the publishing wing of Humble Bundle, known for hits like A Hat in Time, Forager, and yes, the original Project Wingman. Sector D2, the Aussie game dev shop founded by Abi Rahmani and Matthew Nguyen, led the charge in developing this high-flying spectacle.
So there you have it, pilots. Project Wingman: Frontline 59 is your ticket to aerial warfare like you’ve never experienced before. Get ready to climb the ranks and write your own legend in the skies.
Platforms: PlayStation VR2, PlayStation 5
