When speaking about the new release, CEO of Gaijin Entertainment Anton Yudintsev commented, “Our daily efforts have been recognized by the community and help to explain why War Thunder has an audience of more than 7 million players battling to be top gun on our PC version, and now out in North American PS4 owners to join the fight! PlayStation 4 has allowed us to create a very beautiful game, which is looking on par with most powerful computers. Also, the PlayStation Camera is a very handy device for a flight combat game – it makes head-tracking possible, which is invaluable in frantic dogfights.”
