The second installment in a multiplayer open world game series developed by Ivory Tower Studios, which employs the creators of the Test Drive Unlimited series. Like the first installment, The Crew 2 features open world races taking place all over the United States of America. Players participate in various motorsport competitions and try to beat other players or the AI-controlled drivers. This time around, we get at our disposal not only a number of different cars but also motorcycles, motorboats, and airplanes. The Crew 2 delivers an arcade vehicle handling model, which consorts with the tracks filled with obstacles and quarter pipes. The title focuses on giving players the freedom to drive anywhere they want, anytime they want – there is nothing standing in our way to e.g. get to a building’s rooftop and take a small spin. The well developed social aspect of the game allows us not only to race other players but also to form crews and share unlocked achievements. The entire experience is well complimented with detailed graphics and dynamic day and night cycle.

An arcade flight simulator and continuation of the popular series published by Bandai Namco. Like its predecessors, Ace Combat 7 is set in alternative timeline, in which there are different countries, and humans have constructed unique flying units. Game focuses on the story, which we learn both through events during missions and many cutscenes. The gameplay is mostly arcade, with only a few simulation’s features. Due to that, realism has to move over and make space for dynamic and eye-catching sky fights, including battles with powerful bosses. Each available plane flies slightly differently, resulting in a more varied experience. Ace Combat 7 offers a story campaign for one player and multiplayer mode. Developers made use of Unreal Engine 4 and also added support of PlayStation VR goggles.

Bomber Crew is a hybrid of a strategy game and a simulator, with some additional RPG elements. Developed by Runner Duck, the game allows the player to assume the role of a WWII pilot commanding a bomber crew. During the game, one has to complete numerous missions, which involve eliminating strategically important military targets and providing reconnaissance behind enemy lines. The gameplay is divided into two parts – the preparation stage involves selecting recruits, as a bomber crew has to comprise a pilot, a mechanic, gunners, a radio operator, a navigator, and an ammo supply crewman. The player should pay close attention to the recruits they select, as their death on the battlefield is permanent. When airborne, one has to monitor the condition of both their crew and their plane, as consecutive subsystems might break down – a spot-on shot on the plane’s tail might result in losing maneuverability, similarly to a burning engine. Thus, during each mission, the player has to repair the plane. After completing a mission (when over a target, the player gets to operate the on-board systems in order to photograph the target or bomb it), one has to return home safely – provided he has enough fuel. Bomber Crew is bound to attract players’ attention with its colorful visuals and dynamic vessel damage system.

A military flight simulator created by Sim155 Limited - a studio founded by one of the main designers who worked on the original game. CAP2 is a spiritual heir to the 1993's Combat Air Patrol - a game released for Amiga computers. The player is given an opportunity to take control of a British-American reconnaissance/attack plane AV-8B Harrier II, which is capable of performing V/STOL maneuvers, an acronym for short, vertical take-offs and landings. The game is set in the regions near the Strait of Hormuz, and the player takes part in a set of fictional missions aimed at coordinating the actions of sea and assault patrols, as well as fighting numerous air, ground and sea targets. While the game is not a hardcore simulator, the level of realism present here should satisfy both veterans of simulation games and beginners. Additionally, simulation-related aspects are complemented by strategy elements, as the player has to plan each mission carefully.
