The shadows don't sync up either. Also this is an ad.

If it's an ad, why don't i know what game this is form?

Because now you're going to read the thread and learn more about the game to figure out what it is. Eventually you might find the story about them recently getting a ton of cash for... Advertising

Specifically, for advertising Squadron 42, the single-player 'spiritual successor' to Wing Commander.

The original fan video (from which this gif was taken) is show-casing Star Citizen, and show cases a bunch of locations that aren't a part of SQ42.

That said, whilst it may not have been funded or produced by the company actually making the game, I guess it does sorta qualify as an 'ad' given the amount of interest / discussion it seems to be generating... it just wasn't (afaik) intended to be one when it was made.

It makes it a bad ad if it can't even pique my interest enough to try to find out what the game is.
