Grab the horizon by the balls

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

Another introductory feature in The Belkan War is the Ace Style Gauge. As you play each mission, you're constantly graded on how you fight. You can go all mercenary, literally killing anything that moves, or take the noble approach and allow damaged enemies to escape with their lives. There's also a middle ground, where you kinda split the balance, but choosing one extreme or the other is the way to go - your actions will affect in-flight dialogue and mission updates, plus the game's ending.
