Farlight Games capped off a successful 2024 with their collaboration with Lilith Games on AFK Journey. Now, as 2025 begins, they're launching Ace Trainer, currently in soft launch in South Korea and the US. This intriguing title blends tower defense, pinball mechanics, and creature collection.
Think Pokémon, but with a zombie twist. You collect, train, and level up fantastical creatures to battle hordes of undead. The gameplay incorporates pinball elements for resource gathering, creating a unique and eclectic experience. While a global release isn't guaranteed, the multi-regional soft launch suggests Farlight has high hopes for Ace Trainer.
A Bit of Everything?
Ace Trainer seems to throw everything but the kitchen sink into the mix: PvP, PvE, tower defense, pinball, and more. While the combination is initially intriguing, it also raises questions about long-term sustainability. Will this ambitious blend of mechanics hold up over time? Only time will tell.
