Game controllers can bring an added level of immersion to the gaming experience as well as improve your play. A flight stick can make all the difference when you’re angling to be top gun. Luckily then, Hori are bringing out a new controller to help indulge your fantasies. The Ace Combat Flight Stick for PS4 will launch alongside the forthcoming Ace Combat 7 early next year.

The stick and throttle are separate. There’s a stereo jack included too, if you want to put some headphones on for another layer of immersion. The stick has been designed to follow the HOTAS specification, just like a real flight controller. It vibrates too, for an extra sense of panic when you’re under fire.

This isn’t the only flight stick available on PS4 but it looks like a high quality unit. The stick is not just compatible with the PS4, it also works on PS3 and the PC. It is penciled in for a January 17th 2019 release date and will set you back Y19,980.

The Ace Combat series has been consistently good but we haven’t seen it in a while. Ace Combat 6 came out just over a decade ago. Let’s hope the new game will be a good one.
