In the summer of 2021, Microsoft Flight Simulator will launch on the Xbox Series S/X. At The Game Awards, as well as by Microsoft in an official post on its website, the production was shared. At the ceremony, Microsoft Flight Simulator won the award for Best Simulator/Strategy Game. In an official post by Jorg Neumann, head of Microsoft Flight Simulator, console players should assume the same amount of depth as PC players. Although there is no exact release date, Microsoft stated that on the day of launch, the game will be available through Xbox Game Pass.
The game will be available next summer for the Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X. It will have the same amount of scope as the PC version, says Microsoft. The same-themed DLC packs and other enhancements as seen on the PC can also be expected from Xbox Series S/X players. In order to enhance the simulation experience, Microsoft is now partnering with third-party partners to introduce peripherals to next-gen consoles.
Satellite data and cloud-based AI are used by Microsoft Flight Simulator to map the entire world with great accuracy as you navigate a number of planes from one location to another. There are two million villages, more than 37,000 airports, 1.5 billion buildings, actual highways and mountains, and more. It won Best Simulator/Strategy Game of 2020 at The Game Awards, which recently concluded.
For Xbox Series S/X players, Microsoft Flight Simulator will be available via Xbox Game Pass on launch day. The game was released in August for PC and includes a beefy rig to get the best experience. It will be fascinating to see how the Xbox Series S/X scores a game that can tax high-end gaming PCs.
