Game Description
Salvation comes from above thanks to the Blazing Angels, an elite flying unit charged with turning the tide of World War II. Command a squadron of AI-controlled wingmen through cinematic renditions of WWII's landmark battles. Pilot 46 authentic WWII aircrafts. Engage the enemy at Pearl Harbor, make strafing runs over German industrial targets, and more. Over the course of a 20-mission campaign, your squadron will develop into a seamless fighting force. Engage in dogfights with up to 16 players or ally with other squadrons for co-op missions online. Four controller configurations, including one keyed on the PS3 controller's motion-sensing capabilities, give you the feeling of flight like never before.
