That game gives me some good old IL-1946 vibes. I'll keep an eye on it.

Yep the realism is on il-2 level also, and being a free to play multiplayer game it should be plenty of fun. There is literaly no other multiplayer flight sim like this currently available.

This isn't a new game. The promotional video showing the Wildcat was first posted back in May 2017, as content for Aces High III: a game which originated in 2000. All that is new (or at least, all that is new that there is any verifiable information on) is the 'free to play' aspect, which seems to be a recognition by the developer that the AH III subscription model didn't work.

There are new things

-pacific was never done
- japanese vs usa (aces high has 3 side fantasy war)
- free to play
- new ui (confirmed by dev)


This seems like a re-work/new version of the previous game.

Online, and multi-player? No thanks.

Yep, a combat flight sim is pretty fun vs others.

It's pretty much the only PvP I enjoy. I see this is VR too, will definitely give it a go

Yeah that looks right up my alley!

I love WW2 flight sims. This one reminds me of the old game Pacific Air War, man I used to play the frack out of that.

Right on, Sir! See you in the skies [up]

Had that in a bundle with Task Force 1942 (Pacific surface fleet action) and 1944: Across the Rhine.

That was a good value for money pack I bought .

Do we get controllable ships like in Aces High then?

I have no hotas, but given I have VR I am toying with the thought of trying this.
With Elite, World of Warships and the rest, I won't be able to assign enough time though.
