The player controls a plane whose allegiance is one of three WWII nations: Britain, Russia, and Germany. The game ignores factions such as America, Japan, and Italy. Each nation has several unique fighter planes which are collected and then used during the campaign. The campaign spans the entire course of the war. During the single-player campaign the player earns stats, acheivements, new planes, and commendations.
The game also comes with multi-player for Internet TCP/IP. Up to 8 players can play at once. All the planes can be chosen and different skins can be added for personal customization. Both Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch are available game styles.
The graphics are fairly decent for a 2006 flight game. There is a large variety of multi-player and single-player maps and locations to play in. There is a lack of voice-over in the game and instead focuses on machine sounds and music.
The game has had several spinoffs, including the recent Air Conflicts: Secret Wars of 2011. In 2009, Air Conflicts: Aces of World War II came out and in 2012 Air Conflicts: Pacific Carriers was released, creating a trilogy of Air Conflicts games.
