Microsoft is bringing back its popular Flight Simulator game. Its just announced a new instalment to the Flight Simulator series, and the new iteration looks absolutely stunning. 
Microsoft hasnt shared many details about the game, but it will be available for the PC when it launches in 2020. The game will be available in 4K, and it is powered by Microsoft Azure AI. 
Coming 2020, Microsoft Flight Simulator is the next generation of one of the most beloved simulation franchises. From light planes to wide-body jets, fly highly detailed and stunning aircraft in an incredibly realistic world. Create your flight plan and fly anywhere on the planet. Enjoy flying day or night and face realistic, challenging weather conditions, Microsoft said. 
The visuals in the trailer look absolutely amazing, and 2020 couldnt come soon enough. Take a look.

    Really... guessing Boeing didn’t get a seat at the consultation table on this one.

    The MB version never requires the operator to land, but it has great graphics of city skylines.

The whole OS has been a 737Max emulator since DOS 1.0.
To: rjsimmon
    They should. But add the “Sully” option before you crash and burn.

    The 737 MAX cheap version includes the MCAS software simulation, but they don’t tell you that it’s lurking in the background.
The much higher priced 737 MAX version comes with complete training on MCAS and includes a special one-time only offer of an Angle of Attack indicator on the panel.

    It looks great! I’ve been doing flight simulator since the very first one all the way through to the current version. I’m a sim expert at flying all the aircraft but especially focused on the jumbo jets. I’m very excited to see MSFS continue.

    Let me guess. It requires an online connection to run.

    Will it run on my Windows Me? I hope so. Because I’m getting tired of playing solitaire.
