"IL-2 Sturmovik: Korea War" focuses on aerial combat during the early jet age. Once in the cockpit, players will pilot fighter jets from that era across the Korean battlefield, immersing themselves in that famous aerial confrontation. The game aims to use next-generation simulation technology to allow players to rewrite history from a pilot's perspective.
IL-2 Sturmovik: Korea War takes you back to a pivotal moment in aviation history—the era when jet engines completely changed the aerial landscape. During the Korean War, old-fashioned piston-engine aircraft clashed fiercely with the first generation of jet fighters.
The game features a vast battlefield and highly accurate aircraft, while striking a delicate balance between immersion and ease of control, making every dogfight feel incredibly immersive.
You can start as an ace pilot flying legendary warbirds, or rise through the ranks to become a regimental commander leading an entire squadron. You can plan routes, issue orders, and personally turn the tide of history. In the skies over Korea, you can be either an ordinary pilot or a strategic master shaping the outcome of the war—the choice is yours.
IL-2 Sturmovik: Korea War is the first title in the series to fully support controller operation.
Every aircraft in the game has been meticulously recreated based on authentic blueprints, historical photographs, flight manuals, and other materials from the Korean War period, featuring eight classic models for you to choose from.
All instruments in the cockpit are functional, reflecting the aircraft's system status in real time. You can aim and fire just like pilots did 75 years ago.
This battlefield is the largest map ever created for the IL-2 Sturmovik series, covering an area of over 200,000 square kilometers. The entire Korean Peninsula has been reconstructed based on historical maps and documents from the 1950s, faithfully reproducing all significant historical geographical changes, such as land reclamation and coastline shifts.
The battlefield includes dozens of airbases based on real historical data, hundreds of settlements, and numerous strategic targets such as ports, dams, and transportation hubs.
In Career Mode, you will serve as the commander of an air unit, managing subordinates and coordinating aviation logistics.
You can either personally fly missions or focus on strategic command. As a commander, you need to maintain troop readiness, formulate battle plans, and continuously strengthen your air forces.
IL-2 Sturmovik: Korea War features highly detailed damage models for both aerial and ground units. All aircraft (including strategic bombers), ground vehicles, trains, and ships will display corresponding damage states based on the nature of the attacks they sustain.
Every object reacts realistically to collisions, crashes, and combat damage. Factors such as mass, speed, and impact point directly influence vehicle behavior and battle outcomes.
In this new mode, you can personally examine detailed information on every aircraft, vehicle, and submarine. You are free to explore various models, learn about their development histories and combat records, inspect cockpits, compare technical specifications, and view detailed performance charts.
This is your exclusive private aviation museum, always ready for your visit. For enthusiasts of aviation and military history, it is truly a treasure trove.
In this game, you can leave the cockpit for the first time and freely walk around the airbase where your unit is stationed.
All character animations in the game (including pilots, soldiers, and civilians) are created using motion capture technology, resulting in natural and realistic movements.
Full VR support provided through OpenXR and OpenVR.
