Combat organizes its 27 modes around tank battles and aerial encounters with biplanes and jet fighters. Tank variants include invisibility and “Tank-Pong,” which uses bouncing munitions. The aircraft games include options with multiple planes per player, as well as a scenario that pits a squadron against one giant bomber.
Atari developed the game for the Atari 2600, drawing on two of its earlier black-and-white coin-operated arcade games and presenting the combat in color.
