Set during the pivotal opening year of the Pacific War, Task Force Admiral places players in command of U.S. Navy carrier task forces in 1942. From managing reconnaissance and strike coordination to navigating the fog of war, delayed communications, and real-time combat, the game delivers an uncompromising simulation of carrier warfare as it was fought.

With full 3D battles, authentic ships and aircraft, realistic ballistics and damage modeling, and multiple command perspectives — from first-person flag plot to God’s-eye view — Task Force Admiral blends classic naval wargaming with modern simulation technology.

Early Access begins with two of the most iconic carrier battles of the Pacific War, fully playable in both historical and variant forms:

Available on Release

    Coral Sea Scenario & Variant (May 8, 1942)

    Midway Scenario & Variant (June 4, 1942)

    Coral Sea & Midway Battle Generator Sets

    Playable fighter aircraft

    Savegame support

    TacView-style battle replay system

These scenarios allow players to experience and experiment with the opening carrier clashes of the Pacific War, from historical outcomes to alternative what-if situations.

Coming Within the First Month of Early Access

Development will continue rapidly following release, expanding both sides of the conflict and deepening historical coverage with:

    New Coral Sea & Midway scenario variants

    Additional aircraft carriers: USS Saratoga, IJN Ryūjō, and IJN Jun’yō

    Complete Japanese Order of Battle for Midway

    1940 “Early War” Midway variant

These additions will significantly broaden fleet composition, scenario variety, and historical depth as Early Access progresses.

The complete roadmap is available on the Steam page.

Early Access marks the foundation of a larger series exploring carrier warfare in World War II. As development continues, Task Force Admiral will grow with new scenarios, forces, features, and refinements, guided by player feedback and historical research.

Task Force Admiral – Vol.1: American Carrier Battles is available now in Early Access on Steam.

Players can take command of history today and help shape the future of this next-generation carrier warfare simulation.
