Acecraft Season 4: Pris, The Metropolis, and Co-Pilot Chaos

I’ll be honest: when I first heard “world’s first hand-drawn co-op shooter,” I braced for a gimmick. But Acecraft from MOONTON Games has become one of those rare mobile titles that actually earns its adjectives. Season 4: Modern Times arrived on 28 November 2025, and the update feels less like a standard seasonal patch and more like someone threw a live synthesizer into a fireworks factory. The game had already topped the iOS Free App charts in 34 countries and passed millions of downloads after its global launch, and Sensor Tower reported around USD 500,000 in revenue in the month leading up to the update. So yes, people are not just downloading—they’re staying.

Pris: The S-Tier Chaos Engine

Let’s talk about Pris, the new S-tier pilot. On paper, she is a rogue agent with a calm exterior and a taste for destruction. In Cloudia, she worked for a shadowy organisation before defecting to the Ark of Hope. In practice, she is a pressure cooker with a targeting computer bolted to the lid. Her kit rewards aggressive play: she absorbs enemy projectiles and converts them into tracking missiles, which means incoming fire becomes your ammo. Her passive charges a high-impact Energy Cannon the longer she stays under pressure, and her ultimate sends out a slow-moving Energy Orb that blocks bullets before detonating for massive area damage. Playing Pris feels like juggling lit sparklers while someone keeps handing you more—dangerous, bright, and weirdly satisfying if you can keep the rhythm.

If you want her, the Skyward Recruit banner opens 1 December, with Excellent-tier pilots guaranteed every 10 pulls. Her Signature Wingman, Deadly Lily, also shows up in Honk’s Depot during the same period. If you enjoy controlling the pace of battle through calculated destruction, she is basically built for you.

The Metropolis: Neon, Secrets, and Edith

Chapter 13: The Metropolis is the new adventure zone, a neon-lit city where pleasure, technology, and secrecy collide. The city wears its neon like stage makeup—glittering enough to dazzle you while it hides the script underneath. Beneath the lively exterior, conspiracies tied to the mysterious agent Edith are waiting. Players can unlock the chapter permanently after clearing Adventure Stage 12-9, so it’s not locked behind a paywall or some impossible late-game wall. That accessibility is a smart move: you can push through the story without needing a perfect roster.

Co-Pilot Mode Returns with Mirror of Nightmares

Co-Pilot Mode made its return on 28 November, and it didn’t just come back quietly. The new visual theme, Mirror of Nightmares, is like flying through Cloudia’s reflection in a broken funhouse mirror—familiar shapes, wrong angles, and tougher enemies around every corner. You team up with a partner to clear challenges and unlock upgraded rewards: Recruit Tickets in Achievements, plus more Gold, EXP, and Diamonds in daily rewards. The unlock condition is forgiving too: clear Adventure Stage 2-3 and you can dive straight in.

Is It Worth Returning in 2026?

From my seat in early 2026, Acecraft Season 4 is a strong argument that MOONTON Games understands live-service rhythm. You get:

• 🎯 A new S-tier pilot with a genuinely fun reflection-based combat loop.

• 🌆 A permanent story chapter with neon-soaked conspiracy energy.

• 🤝 Co-op content that rewards teamwork without demanding a hardcore schedule.

• 🎁 Guaranteed Excellent-tier pulls every 10 attempts on Pris’s banner.

The game is live on iOS and Android. Whether you’re returning for Co-Pilot Mode, diving into The Metropolis, or pulling for Pris, the skies of Cloudia are about to get louder, brighter, and far more chaotic.
