# World War vs Gunship Operator 3D

The clearest difference is update cadence: Gunship Operator 3D at weekly against World War's every 4 weeks. Gunship Operator 3D also leads on ratings volume (24K vs 1.2K). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. World War sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Gunship Operator 3D sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Gunship Operator 3D holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gunship Operator 3D has 24K ratings behind it against 1.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of World War's written reviews are positive against 44% of Gunship Operator 3D's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

World War ships an update every 4 weeks, Gunship Operator 3D weekly. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
