About Flight Games
Flight games on PlayStation split into a few distinct traditions. Arcade combat flight is the biggest draw: Ace Combat 7 and the VR-native Project Wingman: Frontline 59 chase spectacle over checklists, while Red Wings recreates WWI dogfighting and War Thunder offers hundreds of real aircraft free-to-play. Sci-fi flight bends the same combat into space, in the story-driven CHORUS and the cockpit-only Star Wars: Squadrons. Civilian simulation is the other pole, led by Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, which renders the entire planet to scale, with Ultrawings 2 taking the same idea into VR and Frontier Pilot Simulator into off-world cargo hauling. Around them sit the specialists: Bomber Crew turns flight into WWII crew management, and Rogue Flight into a stylised arcade shooter. A raw catalogue search for flight games is dominated by low-rated shovelware and airport-management sims with no piloting, so every pick here is hand-curated for genuine flying, then ranked on player ratings, depth and overall quality.
