We recently interviewed Wargaming.Net CEO, Victor Kislyi about World of Warplanes, the follow up to World of Tanks that was announced at E3 this year. Warplanes will follow a similar free-to-play format tof WoT, with the same “gold, experience” and “economics,” and is set to include planes from “big plane nations” like Russia, Germany, Britain, France, America and Japan.
Kislyi says the team are trying to strike a similar balance to World of Tanks, combining accessible controls with historically accurate World War 2 war machines. This time around, Wargaming.Net are going for a new audience. “It’s important to understand, we want to concentrate this game on air combat enthusiasts,” said Kislyi. “We want to go to air shows. We want to go to air museums. We want to talk to people who fly those hardcore flight simulations.”
