Our take on Final Strike
Final Strike replaces a conventional aviation scenario with an airborne alien invasion and a cinematic, end-of-the-world framing. Its VR version also places mission briefings, training, menus, HUDs, and working cockpit instruments inside the flight experience.
What is Final Strike?
