How it feels

Fast-paced arcade dogfighting with authentic WWII aircraft feels like a Hollywood aerial battle made playable.

What players say

The base campaign is very short, under an hour, and the DLC campaigns are sold separately, which frustrates some. Controls are simple and casual, though some players find them poor. The game cannot run fullscreen on Windows 11 without a third-party app like Borderless Gaming.
