Hello Pilots!
After months of hard work, Update 2.0 for 303 Squadron Battle of Britain is finally here. Listening to your feedback, we realized that in most cases we can make some solid improvements. We've decided to eliminate most of the issues to some extent and added some new features that will drastically affect the experience of our game. We managed to find some time and the result of our work is a completely revamped map of London. The quality level has improved a lot, the optimization is better, the AI more refined, the UI slightly improved. All this is done for you to have more fun in 303. That's not all! A shooting range has been added to the station, where you will be able to practice shooting at targets and unlock several upgrades to your aircraft and the air combat itself.
We encourage you to fire up the game once again and check the changes yourself!
