Parrot is planning on releasing AR.FlyingAce - a dog fighting game for the AR.Drone - on April 15. As of this moment, pricing for the application has not yet been announced.
If you're not familiar with the AR.Drone, the device is a $299.95 quadcopter that can be controlled via an iOS device. Furthermore, an iOS app - AR.Pursuit ($2.99) - allows friends to play a tag like game with a couple of AR.Drones.
However, we all know that tag isn't the kind of game we want to play with AR.Drones. Instead, we're looking for something a little more, you know - action packed. Something that makes us feel like we're flying a powerful machine, rather than a small remote controlled quadcopter.
Fortunately, Parrot's way of thinking isn't too different from ours: Since the AR.Drone launched, the company has been teasing us with a dog fighting style app for the device. Now, Parrot has released a demo video showing off that very app, which the company calls AR.FlyingAce.
We've embedded the video below for you to check out. As mentioned, it should be available around April 15, so you haven't got long to wait. And, if you want to find out more about the AR.Drone, check out our review.
