To celebrate the Flying Tigers: Shadows Over China launch on the Xbox Store one year ago (January 12th in 2018), ACE MADDOX announced that effective immediately, FTSOC is half the price for two weeks.
In other news, aspiring FTSOC pilots have clocked up an impressive 78,750 flight hours (on Xbox One) since release, which translates to 9 years in the skies! Unfortunately we don’t know how many barrel rounds have been fired during online and offline dogfights in the same period, but it’s likely in the tens of millions!
FTSOC is normally priced at $18.99 USD in North America (save $9.50), £14.99 in the UK (save £7.60), and €18.99 EUR in mainland Europe (save €9.50).
On a bit of a side-note, we’d also like to share that Xbox One players have been playing rather fairly, using both the arcade-style “combat aided” controls as well as the more advanced “simcade” pitch & roll input method (the latter often with Thrustmaster’s T.Flight Hotas Oneflight-stick hardware).
