Not sure who Bruce Dickinson is? Think Iron Maiden and of Dickinson's role as the legendary band's front man. Ah, now that the connection is made, you may be wondering about the connection to Wargaming and World of Warplanes. As it turns out, Dickinson is a huge fan of military aviation and he has been asked to narrate a series of videos to profile some of history's most iconic aircraft including the Messerschmitt Bf.109, the Spitfire and the Hawker Hurricane.
The team at Wargaming flew me out to San Francisco for an indepth look at World of Warplanes’ newest revamp. While in their offices, I had a chance to interview Al King, Global Brand Director of Wargaming, and pick his mind about his thoughts on the new World of Warplanes and what he plans to achieve with the 2.0 patch.
The guys at Wargaming.net flew me out to take a gander at the newest World of Warplanes 2.0 patch, in what is essentially a re envisioning of the game. I got to meet with the developers and get a hands on with the new Bomber class and play with the Wargaming team on the new objective focused maps. Al King, Global Brand Director of Wargaming, also took the time for an interview about how the team reached 2.0 and their future plans for the game, which you can read here.
Not every game gets a second chance at success. Then again, Wargaming.net isn’t your average studio, but a developer-turned-publisher managing a growing stable of titles across PC, console, and mobile. When the team behind World of Warplanes decided that the current version wasn’t working out, they knuckled down on a fresh experience that made flight combat more interesting, more accessible, and ultimately more rewarding.
Wargaming continues to deliver historical projects: in honor of the 70th anniversary of victory in World War II, together with Bravo369 Flight Foundation (USA) and Rusavia, a Russian aviation company, they will recreate the air route connecting Alaska and Siberia. A convoy of World War II aircraft will fly from the United States of America, across the Bering Sea and Siberia, to Moscow—a journey of 14,000 kilometers. Don’t miss this unique event.
