Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy Plus is an improved version of Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy. So this is the next installment of a recognized series of arcade air shooters, in which we sit at the helm of fighters. Contrary to the European title, the project has little in common with the Assault Horizon Legacy Plus released in 2011 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy Plus, and in fact it is a remake of Ace Combat 2. The production is virtually the same game as the basic Assault Horizon Legacy, but the developers took care of the support for the amiibo figurines, so that we can move the toys to the virtual world, gaining special paintings for the aircraft. In addition, the project supports handheld New 3DS, which has additional buttons and a second analog knob.

Nintendo Life: 7 / 10 by Thomas Whitehead

Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy+ is a minor and slightly cheeky update - despite Nintendo planes and amiibo support it's certainly not worth a double dip for those with the original. It does serve as a handy reminder to those that ignored it first-time around, however, and it's an entertaining arcade experience that does its job as throwaway action fun. It's the sort of title that one can revisit every once in a while, just to fly through the skies and pretend it's the '80s and that Top Gun is cool. Often silly but always enjoyable, it's certainly worth some air miles for new recruits.

TheSixthAxis: 6 / 10 by Dominic Leighton

Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy Plus is an enjoyable and engaging entry in the series, and in the combat flight-sim genre. For returning players however there is very little new content here to warrant a purchase, unless you're absolutely desperate to pilot a Samus Aran airplane in a fictional war. For those new to the title who are looking for something slightly different to go with their New 3DS, there's a lot to recommend here, though it sadly all feels like a bit of a missed opportunity.
