The director of the Ace Combat video game saga, Kazutoki Kono, and its main composer Keiki Kobayashi have proposed to fans, through their respective twitter accounts (@kazutoki & @keikikobayashi), to create covers of the main theme of the video game Ace Combat 7, with the sole intention of having fun and showing their talent performing the piece with their own instruments/music composition programs, in these days of confinement at home.
