Apache: Air Assault is a video game made by Russian development studio Gaijin Entertainment and launched by large publisher Activision for platforms like the PC, PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360, on November 16, 2010, as a new type of combat flight simulator, focused, like its name clearly suggests, on helicopters instead of fighter jets like previous titles that are released in the genre.
Apache: Air Assault tasks players with completing various types of missions using a number of different Apache helicopters, including models like the Boeing AH-64D Longbow Apache, Agusta Westland AH Mk 1 Apache or the Northrop Grumman MQ-8B Fire Scout, each with their special characteristics, which can be customized with different decals or control layouts, depending on the preferences of the player, and used to fulfill a variety of missions that take place all over the world.
