Microsoft Flight Simulator is a weird little franchise. The series began in 1982, but never achieved the huge fame of other vintage franchises. Instead, these beautiful and highly technical games were often considered more of a niche series among gamers.

Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) is looking to change all of that. He is the biggest and most ambitious entry in the series to date. Available now on PC (and in the future on Xbox One), it comes out at a time when the last thing most of us can do in real life is take a flight to an exotic location.

So, everything is ready for Microsoft Flight Simulator to be one of the hit games of 2020. Did the developer Asobo Studio succeed? For the most part, the answer is a resounding “yes” and here’s why.

Heavy specifications

I don’t normally comment on the minimum specs of a game. But in this case, the Microsoft Flight Simulator specifications are the subject of a lot of conversation.

Many gamers have found that their computers cannot even run this game. And even gamers with fancy rigs soon discovered just how unstable the FPS could get (especially when the game renders major metropolitan areas).

Overall, Microsoft Flight Simulator really impressed me. But don’t be surprised if you need to upgrade some of your gear to get the most out of the game.

Absolutely beautiful

So what do you get for all that gaming power? In short, one of the best games ever created.

When you fly in the clouds, everything around you looks beautiful and textured. It is easy to imagine simply reaching out and touching the softness of the nearest cloud.

The terrain is also beautiful. The game is powered in large part by the data that Microsoft has collected over the years. This allows him to create beautiful reproductions of anything from the Eiffel Tower to the local airport in your hometown.

This title may or may not be enough to gain mainstream appreciation from most of the gaming community. But I can guarantee that gamers of all genres will be blown away by what they see.
