FLIGHT SIMULATOR UPDATE 5

Microsoft Flight Simulator is launching on Xbox Series X and Series S, and with it comes a massive update that improves performance.

The update improves CPU performance, virtual reality performance, and various other performance optimizations.

Some key updates include the following:

• Up to 30% better FPS than Update 4
• Improved draw distance that removes tree line popping
• Glass cockpits and big airports don’t impact performance as much
• PC users can now use ray tracing
• Xbox users can use mouse and keyboard

There are some massive updates coming later this year and in 2022 too, including the following improvements:

• Release of replay mode
• Six different world updates expected in 2022
• Introduction of gliders
• A massive Live Weather update due in 2022
• All future updates will launch on PC and Xbox consoles

Flight Simulator Update 5 is a big update and will see the game made available on Xbox Cloud Gaming in the future.

Microsoft Flight Simulator is available now on the Xbox Game Pass, and Xbox Series X and Series S users can pre-load the game now ahead of its launch.
