As announced earlier by Moonton Games, Acecraft, its two-player co-op vertical shooter for mobile, is set for a global launch on August 28, 2025.
Along with this, Moonton Games will debut Acecraft's first major crossover, Tom & Jerry in Cloudia, with a series of special events and in-game rewards to celebrate the worldwide release.
Acecraft X Tom & Jerry Collab
Acecraft's global launch will also introduce its collaboration with the beloved animated cartoon series Tom & Jerry.
Limited-time events featuring the famed duo's slapstick chase await players. The first hand-drawn, co-op bullet hell crossover continues the cat-and-mouse struggle and sets the stage for Acecraft's future as a living IP.
Acecraft - Official Launch Events and Rewards
Launch-day Acecraft players unlock a series of events to reward early adventurers.
These launch events add to the pre-registration campaign's rewards with valuable in-game items, themed prizes, and exclusive bonuses, equipping pilots for Cloudia.
Hand-drawn heroes bolstered by a legend
Acecraft is known for its eight Ace Pilots, who are animated frame-by-frame. Their designs combine slapstick hilarity, expressive charm, and mechanical intricacy to shoot'em ups like never before.
John Pomeroy, the Tom & Jerry animator, appreciated the cast after sampling the game:
I think the animation is terrific. The interesting part of Acecraft's animation is that I see glimmers of the acting and personality of the characters. That's the hard part. I'm really impressed with the animation in Acecraft.
Acecraft is releasing a behind-the-scenes feature with John Pomeroy to celebrate the game's launch. He discusses how rubber hose animation adds individuality, Acecraft's character design, and his distinctive sketches of Joey, one of the eight Ace Pilots.

From Amelia, the happy girl next door with a candy-pink plane, to Elsa, the skilled bounty hunter who controls luck, the roster creates a character-driven bullet hell.
The world of Cloudia
Acecraft is set in Cloudia, a floating environment featuring islands, themes, enemies, and challenges. The Ark of Hope, a huge airship created to protect against the Nightmare Legion, is where players start.
Cloudia's islands have unique dangers and designs. Wars between desserts rule Sweetopia, Ghost Swamp conceals cursed ghosts in its fog, and Wonderland traps players in shifting mazes and trickster rivals. As players fight the Nightmare Legion and recover the Key of Destiny, each region brings new opponents and challenges.
As of this writing, over seven million players worldwide have already pre-registered for Acecraft. Before the game goes live, pre-register via the Google Play, Apple App Store, or the official Acecraft website (https://ift.tt/oGaXCI1) to receive various pre-reg rewards like Recruit Tickets, Gold, and Random Blueprints. – PinoyTechSaga
