Microsoft has just announced that Microsoft Flight Simulator will release on August 18th. In order to celebrate this announcement, the team has released a brand new 4K trailer that you can find below.
In Microsoft Flight Simulator, players will be able to fly highly detailed and stunning aircraft in an incredibly realistic world. Players will also be able to create their flight plan and fly anywhere on the planet. Furthermore, the game will have day/night environments, as well as challenging weather conditions.
Microsoft Flight Simulator packs some of the best graphics we’ve seen in a video-game to date. We’ve been sharing a lot of screenshots for this game, so make sure check out some of our previous articles.
A few days ago, Microsoft also revealed that the game’s Closed Beta phase will begin on July 30th.
Lastly, you can find the official PC system requirements for Microsoft Flight Simulator here. PC gamers will at least need an AMD Ryzen 3 1200 or an Intel i5 4460 CPU. Moreover, they’ll need at least 8GB of RAM, 150GB of free hard-disk space and a 5Mbps Internet Connection. Microsoft has also listed the AMD Radeon RX 570 and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX770 as the minimum required graphics cards.
Enjoy!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

No Steam No Buy.
This game is available for free on Game Pass on lanuch day. You can play it for 1 usd for whole month and check if you like it or not
That’s if you’ve not had the 1st time promotion before. Otherwise, it’s what, $10 a month? Not bad, but still, my $1 promo time expired in April.
It’s $5 a month on PC and a no brainer for me. You can even get access to the beta I hear. I will install pre-install the game when I get home.
Yeah, $5 is a huge bargain. Even $10 ain’t bad, if that’s what it was.
I have had the Alpha or whatever it’s at now since they started letting people check it out and it’s… I’ve hardly played it. Came across issues every time I did, specifically with it and my hotas. Probably my “fault”, but I dunno, I hadn’t had issues like this with any other flight sim or hotas games. I will buy it eventually.
Every new game will require build 2004 because of DirectX 12 Ultimate shared between Xbox and PC. It include support for DXR 1.1, VRS Tier 2, Mesh Shaders, Sampler Feedback, Hardware Sheduling, WDDM 2.7
I bet that drivers for both Nvidia Ampere and RDNA2 will require Windows 10 build 2004
Hey our dear Sp4ctro is back, So this account on DSOG and your new one on WCCFTECH…

Normally, I would agree with you, but it seems that it is not like a “normal” game, with all the computation behind the monster….
I dont understand this mentality. Are you a Gamer or Steamer. Why is it relevant?
steam fangay got hurts.
No uTorrent no play.
Wondering if I should buy the Thrustmaster Airbus controllers for this. I am really looking forward to the VR update most of all though.
If I buy this game, I think I gonna be “hell of a screenshots wh0re” !
I think if they put relaxing songs (or relax mode) it will be more satisfying.
There are so many issues with this game in the latest alpha. I seriously doubt it will be ready before August 18th.
Going all in and getting premium this paycheck this week. I dont buy games, have not bought any games in 2nd half of 2019 and this year so far. You have to understand that this is more than just a flight simulator, its the beginning of a journey, with all the mods, thirdparty support that’s coming with it. The only thing its missing is VR and a helicopter. I cannot understand why they did support just the headset like DCS World has, you dont need to use their proprietary controller for it, just mouse and keyboard.
*loud applause*
Looks really amazing!
I was waiting for a good reason to get a new PC.
Finally got it.
