"Ace Trainer: Farlight Games' New Release in Soft Launch"

By HannahMay 20,2025

Farlight kicked off 2024 with a bang thanks to their successful partnership with Lilith Games, bringing the much-anticipated AFK Journey to mobile gamers. As we step into 2025, Farlight isn't slowing down, with their latest venture, Ace Trainer, currently in soft-launch in regions like South Korea and the US.

So, what exactly is Ace Trainer? Think Pokémon, but with a twist. You're collecting, training, and leveling up fantastical creatures to battle for you. Farlight adds a unique flavor by turning it into a tower defense game where your creatures fend off hordes of zombies, rather than a traditional turn-based battle system.

But that's not all—Ace Trainer also incorporates pinball mechanics, allowing you to shoot and collect resources. This eclectic mix of genres might seem overwhelming, but it's clear Farlight has high hopes for the game, given its early soft-launch across multiple regions.

The phrase "everything and the kitchen sink" aptly describes Ace Trainer. While I haven't had the chance to play it yet here in the UK, the blend of PvP, PvE, tower defense, and pinball is intriguing, to say the least. It's a lot to take in, and while it might raise some eyebrows, it could also excite fans of these diverse gameplay elements.

Whether this mix can hold up under long-term scrutiny remains to be seen. For those who enjoy our take on the latest in gaming, don't miss the newest episode of the Pocket Gamer podcast, where we delve into the top news of 2025.
