Not long ago, City Interactive published a press release detailing some of the games key features. In it they heavily push the authenticity of the game, but theres a strong focus on the fun thats to be had; the spoon full of sugar, if you like, to help the history lesson medicine go down. Take a look; KEY FEATURESTriple A: Aerial Arcade Authenticity Pick-up-and-playability. Explosive arcade action alongside advanced physics and painstaking recreation of actual events and aircraft creates an experience thats easily accessible but hard to master; All aircraft are based on authentic models and all combat missions are representative of actual WWII engagements; Accessible behind-the-aircraft view means the game is not a sterile simulation, but an advanced air combat arcade shooter; Fun, dynamic battles offer a wide variety of action and most importantly targets to destroy any given battle will combine dogfighting, escort missions and ground assault; Multiplayer aerial deathmatch provides players the chance to test their mettle against human opponents; Single-player game modes include Free Flight where players can choose a plane and roam over faithfully created environments, and Dogfight where players can pit their wits against up to nine AI-controlled opponents. In the same press release, City Interactive also gave us a run-down of the games single-player campaigns, all of which are supposedly accurate representations of the actual manoeuvres that occurred in the skies during the real event.
