“The Maddox series of flight simulators became instant references of the
genre and we know that PC gamers are eagerly awaiting the next occasion to
ride the skies,” said Tony Kee, vice president of marketing for North
America at Ubisoft. “Storm of War: Battle of Britain guarantees a
thrilling ride; it is the genuine heir to flight simulator hall-of-famer

Ubisoft has been very fruitful and we’re sure that gamers will be excited
to join the ‘proud few’ in this recreation of an important battle of the
Second World War.”
