The arcade aerial combat game
Combat Wings: The Great Battles of WWII is now known as
Dogfight 1942 and will launch on Microsoft Xbox Live Arcade, Sony PlayStation Network and Steam later this year,
City Interactive announced.
The game has been re-envisioned and recreated to feature more than 20 types of aircraft --from the fabled P-38 Lightning and Britain's Spitfire to the feared Messerschmitt 109 and Japanese Kate - players are challenged with the same missions as real WWII pilots, ranging from bombing runs and dog fights to manning defensive positions such as a gunner on a bomber or anti-aircraft site.
A demo of Dogfight 1942 will be released prior to launch - two new
screenshots have been inserted in our gallery.
