The Flight Simulator franchise from Microsoft offers breathtaking virtual experience and the latest addition to the series takes it a step further.

Microsoft and Asobo Studios relied on a new graphic engine and satellite data from bing maps to develop this visually impressive title. After completing the basic training you can explore any corner of the earth. It’s impossible to describe the attention to detail that Microsoft has achieved with this title. For instance, while flying over Africa you can enjoy wildlife safari from your cockpit, or check out the exotic building in Dubai. Well, you can even navigate to Nepal to fly near the World’s highest mountain on Earth.

Apart from breathtaking locations, the game also consists of several high-quality aircraft with almost real-life controls. Unlike many modern-day titles, you won’t have to complete missions or fly your helicopter to rescue people. Rather, you have to explore and work as a virtual piolet.

Pricing And Availability

The standard version of Flight Simulator can be purchased for a price of $59.99. You can purchase the deluxe version for $89.99 to acquire more planes and hand-crafted airports. Lastly, there’s even a $119.99 premium version for getting even more planes and airports. The game can be purchased directly either from the Microsoft Store or Steam. The cheapest way to play this game right now is by subscribing to the $1 (for new subscribers) Xbox Game Pass for a month.
