Does Ace Combat 8 have wingman commands?
Yes. Players can direct wingmen to attack a target, scatter and engage, return to cover, or use equipped special weapons.
Confirmed explanation
The PS5 hands-on describes directional-button commands during combat. Pre-mission squadron composition provides a second layer by determining which allies and equipment accompany the player.
