Dog Fight

Eight friends. One screen. No survivors.

Dog Fight is a couch party game about tiny planes and terrible decisions. Grab up to eight controllers, pick a side, and turn the living room into a warzone. Rounds are short, the controls take about four seconds to learn, and the loser always wants one more go.

Play together, on one screen

Up to 8 players locally — versus, in teams, or co-operatively. Bots fill the empty seats so a two-player night still feels like a full lobby, and you can practise against them solo. Pickups scattered through every arena swing a dogfight in a second — grab first, aim later.

Four modes

Invasion — team up and hold off endless waves of ever-amassing enemies. Co-op, and the one that runs longest. Team Free-for-All — pick sides and fight it out. Tag Team — one pilot up at a time, tag out when you're in trouble. Rabbit — one player is the rabbit, everyone else wants what they've got.

Online and LAN too

Everything plays over the internet or a local network as well, so the couch can be a metaphor when it has to be. But Dog Fight was built for the room, and that's where it's best.

If you like the sound of something slower, Trains & Things is our real-time economic strategy game — build a rail empire from a single track to a continent-spanning logistics network. Both games are available together in the Bitshift Complete Pack.
