It underwent continual improvement through its decade-long lifetime with Kesmai, appearing on new platforms and host services.
Electronic Arts purchased Air Warrior in 1999, and became provider of the game, but it was discontinued in 2001.
Air Warrior was one of the first massive online games, hosting hundreds of users during busy periods.
It inspired WarBirds, which in turn inspired Aces High.
Today there are a number of similar games, like WarThunder, most of them based on a freemium model.
About 3DO
The 3DO Interactive Multiplayer (1993/1994) was an ambitious, expensive CD-based console licensed to multiple manufacturers rather than built by a single company — a business model that ultimately contributed to its commercial failure. Low overall sales and a short commercial life mean 3DO games were produced in modest numbers, making complete copies a specialist retro collecting niche today.
Gamevaro tracks Air Warrior for 3DO with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Air Warrior to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This 3DO release dates back to 1988.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
