Around 2000 I played a game named Crimson Skies. Set in an alternate reality where the US broke up into pieces and freelancers with their airships and planes ruled the skies. This game could use a sequel.

It got a couple sequels but they were Xbox only and from what I hear not as good. But I agree it could do with a reboot. And a setting so I can actually hook the plane onto the airship rather than just getting close enough.

I loved this game growing up! Perfectly ripe for a modern remake.

I'd pay an AAA price for a sequel to that. I used to play it so much that I still regularly hum the orchestral theme.

Not really the same, but a game in kinda similar style is in development by this studio:

Yeah, I was surprised they forgot to cite it in the article.
