Ever since its initial launch back in 2020, the team at Asobo Studio have continually improved all aspects of Microsoft’s Flight Simulator, with various tech and content updates making for a much more complete and bespoke experience. In a surprise announcement, the team officially unveiled the game’s sequel – Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
Announced during the Xbox and Starfield Game Showcase, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is a brand new title in the series “designed to take advantage of the latest technologies in simulation, cloud, machine learning, graphics and gaming to create the most sophisticated, immersive and awe-inspiring flight simulator of all time.”
Details on the game’s tech are light at the moment, though the team has confirmed that MSFS 2024 runs on a “significantly evolved Asobo Studio engine” – suggesting that this sequel will push the game to new heights.
In terms of content, Flight Simulator 2024 is greatly expanding the role of the player, offering well over a dozen new jobs and objectives including:
- Aerial Firefighting
- Search and Rescue
- Helicopter Cargo Transport
- Air Ambulance
- Agricultural Aviation
- Mountain Rescue
- Skydive Aviation
- Aerial Construction
- Industrial Cargo Transport
- VIP Charter Service
- Air Racing
- Glider Pilot
- Scientific Research
- Experimental Flight
- Low Altitude Training
- Executive Transport Service
- Airship Tour
- Hot air Balloon Trips
With how consistently and thoroughly Asobo has been updating Microsoft Flight Simulator the announcement of a sequel comes as quite a surprise. That said, with all of the announced additions and the nearly two-dozen additional jobs, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 seems to be taking everything to the next level. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 (unsurprisingly) launches next year.
