It is the only title to feature any actors from the film, with James Tolkan reprising his role as a commanding officer (he is called "Stinger" in the film, but is called "Hondo" in Fire at Will). Top Gun: Fire At Will was released by Spectrum HoloByte in 1996 for DOS, Windows, and PlayStation. The PlayStation version differs greatly from the PC versions, emphasizing action over simulation in particular, take-offs and landings were cut, and the player begins each mission with enemies near at hand, rather than having to hunt them down.

The game's overall plot focuses on the player-character, Maverick, going to combat in Cuba, North Korea, and Libya against a secret group of mercenary pilots called the "Cadre".

A sequel, Top Gun: Hornet's Nest, was released in 1998. It is a licensed game in the Top Gun franchise. Top Gun: Fire at Will is a video game developed and published by Spectrum HoloByte for DOS, Windows, PlayStation, and Mac OS.
