*1942: Joint Strike* draws inspiration from Capcom's classic 194X series of vertical shooters, bringing a modern twist to the beloved franchise. While the game features familiar elements in its art, sound, and gameplay that evoke the historical shoot-'em-up vibe, it sets itself apart with a fully realized 3D engine while maintaining the traditional 2D top-down perspective. Set in an alternate World War II timeline, players will engage in intense aerial battles over the Pacific. The game's locales, vehicles, and weapons are reminiscent of the classic warships and planes, but this time, the action is more intense than ever. It's up to you and your lone fighter to change the course of history—but survival is the ultimate challenge!
