Birds of Steel is a combat flight simulator video game created by Gaijin Entertainment and published by Konami. The game includes more than one hundred non-fictional planes, twenty historical missions, and hundreds of procedural missions over sixteen different locations, including Pearl Harbor and Wake Island. It has single player, four player cooperative, and online multiplayer modes. Birds of Steel provided the base work for Gaijin Entertainment’s MMO game War Thunder. The game consists of three difficulty settings, which change the way planes are flown: Simplified, an arcade play style, Realistic, a mix between an arcade play style and a simulation play style, and lastly Simulator, in which the planes handle as closely to real life as possible. Working on Birds of Steel was an exciting project involving collaboration with talented voice actors, crafting a historically rich narrative, and creating intense, action-packed moments that kept the players on the edge of their seats!
