In the game
- Meaning: Latin for “Garden of the High King.”
- OST role: campaign / trailer-associated cue; community and wiki notes place a major use in the late Mission 29 Selene fight (Moon 11 / X-40 phase) and credits rotation.
- Physical release: see the soundtrack & vinyl guide for Vinyl Collection context.
Lindsey Stirling collaboration
Bandai Namco / PROJECT ACES released a promotional performance with violinist Lindsey Stirling around launch (late Sep 2026). She performs Hortus Regis Alti in a Tasha / Joker Flight–inspired look — a music-video tribute, not a replacement for the in-game score.
- Official announcement: Bandai Namco Europe Ace Combat news
- Full video: Lindsey Stirling’s YouTube channel
- Character tie-in: Tasha · VA: Emi Lo
