How it feels

A tense and immersive historical flight sim that demands skill and patience to master fragile WWI aircraft.

What players say

Players say Rise of Flight delivers a realistic WWI flight experience with dated but serviceable graphics and a good feel compared to IL-2 Flying Circus. However, many call the free-to-play model a trap: you only get three planes and must buy DLC for missions, though quick battles remain free. Long-time players report the multiplayer is dead and community development stalled.
