The story mode covers key moments of the war, from the Battle for England to the bombing raids over Berlin, while taking some creative liberties to make the game more exciting. Players get to experience iconic events like flying over Normandy on D-Day and saving the day at Pearl Harbor.
Gameplay is varied with 18 flyable planes available during the single-player campaign, including fighters, reconnaissance planes, dive bombers, torpedo planes, and level bombers. The squadron command system and wingmen's abilities add a tactical element to the game.
