Microsoft Flight Simulator (colloquially known as Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020) is a flight simulator developed by Asobo Studio and published by Xbox Game Studios. It is an entry in the Microsoft Flight Simulator series, which was first released in 1982, and preceded by Microsoft Flight Simulator X. It was released on August 18, 2020 for Microsoft Windows. It is the first game in the series to also get a console release, expected for the Xbox Series X and Series S in mid 2021.
Flight Simulator simulates the entire Earth using textures and data from Bing Maps, whilst three-dimensional representations of Earth’s features are generated by Microsoft Azure‘s AI. It uses the Azure cloud to render visuals, enhance visual fidelity, and simulate real-world data and effects, as well as calculate physics. Some players received the alpha version as part of the game’s Insider program.
