Evaluation

F-22: Air Dominance Fighter is a modernized re-release of the classic 1997 flight simulator, published on Steam on February 17, 2026. The store description presents a complete, self-contained package: seven campaigns, over 90 missions, 50+ enemy types, and 30 weapons — all described as existing features. No DLC has been listed on the store, and no roadmap or announcement of future content has been made by the developer. Since launch, the developer has been actively patching the game — fixing bugs, improving HOTAS support, adding head tracking, and most recently (August 17, 2026) adding Spanish, French, and German localizations. That August 17 post notes they are "working on more translations," indicating ongoing maintenance work. Critically, none of these updates introduce new gameplay content; they are compatibility fixes, quality-of-life improvements, and localization expansions to the existing game. The previous evaluation flagged uncertainty due to the game being too recently launched to draw conclusions. As of today (August 19, 2026), the game has been out for six months. With no DLC announced, no content roadmap published, and all post-launch activity consisting of maintenance and polish rather than new missions or expansions, the picture is clear: this is a finished re-release that the developer continues to maintain and refine, but is not expanding with new content. It launched as a complete product on February 17, 2026.
Evidence
Spanish, French, and German localization added. Developer notes they are working on more translations, and that some original 1997 manuals appear lost or have unclear rights holders. No new gameplay content announced.

About this game

One of the definitive combat sims from the 90s golden age, overhauled for modern systems. Pilot the USA’s most sophisticated and deadly jet fighter in more than 80 thrilling missions set in the Red Sea region. But you’re not just a pilot – command the air war as AWACS commander.

The perfect balance between simulation and arcade

ADF is no study sim, yet enchantingly realistic. It couples deep modelling of avionics, flight dynamics, and radar with easy controls and the ability to jump right in and have fun!

90s Glide-core graphics, reloaded

Connoisseur of pixelated 90s polygons? This release supports the original screen modes and graphics, rendering flawless on modern systems. But if you like to enjoy the Glide-era graphics in super crisp anti-aliased 4k, we have you covered too!

Stealth and strategy

Accurately control your avionics and radar to use F-22 stealth abilities to your advantage. AWACS mode enables you to lay out decisive strategies to beat enemy fleets. Observe every plane in the theatre and jump into the seat of any F-22 if it becomes necessary.

Features

  • Seven campaigns, quick combat mode, and training for more than 90 missions total, from airfield attack to stealth interception

  • Over 50 types of enemies in the air, on the ground, and at sea

  • 30 different weapons, from advanced air-to-air missiles and cluster bombs to unguided rockets

  • Authentic 90s graphics with resolutions ranging from 320×200 to 4k UltraHD with antialiasing

  • Almost 100 enhancements and fixes with respect to the 1997 release
