Gameplay

49 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Overall , this is a good game, of course you have to spend times to grind for the higher tier, anyway it still fun, less hardcore than Warships and Tanks.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it

Multiplayer

10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
For players who enjoy military aviation, competitive multiplayer games, and progression-driven experiences, World of Warplanes remains a compelling option.
