Our take on SKYRAID
The defining structure is aircraft progression within a match: each battle starts with propeller planes and allows upgrades to jets before it ends.
What is SKYRAID?
SKYRAID is an online conquest game for up to 12 players, with teams fighting in aerial battles from a top-down view.
Players escort airborne forces into enemy territory and attack targets such as ships, drones, helicopters, and defensive emplacements. Controls and combat rely on player skill, with guided weapons and emergency countermeasures available during fights. Each match begins with propeller aircraft, which can be upgraded to jets before the match ends. Equipment progression offers risk-and-reward choices, while a kill-streak skill tree can add abilities during battle. Aircraft span early propeller designs to modern multirole jets. The game includes novice and expert control modes and controller support.
