About

Get ready for incredibly realistic aerial combat with Aces of Thunder, the new flight simulation game. It features stunning graphics and a truly immersive experience, and was designed with the latest VR headsets in mind.

Aces of Thunder delivers a realistic flying experience thanks to its accurate flight and damage physics, borrowed from the popular game War Thunder. You’ll be completely immersed in the action, flying exclusively from the cockpit, and the game fully supports HOTAS controllers. From the moment you start, you’ll have access to a collection of iconic aircraft from both World War I and World War II.

Key Features

  • A Rare Chance to Fly Great War Machines – Iconic fighters like the Fokker Dr.I, famously flown by the Red Baron himself, or the SPAD S.XIII, the favorite aircraft of Rene Fonck, Allies’ most decorated ace, will have authentically detailed cockpits and historically accurate weaponry.
