Microsoft Flight Simulator is due for release on Windows 10 and Xbox Game Pass for PC from August 18th with three different editions, Microsoft has announced.
Published by Xbox Game Studios and developed by Asobo Studio, Microsoft Flight Simulator will be available in a Standard Edition, Deluxe Edition, and Premium Deluxe Edition with the latter suiting its name pretty well.
Costing an eye-catching $119.99 USD, Microsoft Flight Simulator’s Premium Deluxe Edition comes with ten extra planes and ten extra airports compared to its Standard Edition. That’s double the price for 30 planes and 40 airports compared to 20 planes and 30 airports.
As is now the norm, here are handy charts to break down the differences between all editions of Microsoft Flight Simulator.
This means that the likes of Heathrow and San Francisco Internal Airport, two of the most famous airports in the world, are locked behind that paywall.
Elsewhere in Microsoft Flight Simulator, you will be able to fly past 1.5 billion buildings, 2 trillion trees, mountains, roads, rivers and more. It will also feature real-time weather and animals to contend with, alongside a new checklist system to ease you into life in the cockpit. It will also be 4K and HDR compatible.
Microsoft Flight Simulator is one of the most highly anticipated simulator games of the year and the first brand new entry in the series since 2006’s Flight Simulator X, so it will be interesting to see how the community responds to this. The series has been going for almost four decades now.
