Xbox @ gamescom 2025

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 introduces an exciting city update, a brand-new aircraft that many fans will recognize for use in the sim, and exciting and unique challenges for players to test their piloting skills.

The city update and aircraft will also release for MSFS2020 ?

Hi. I don’t know yet.
We have to wait for the full reveal at Gamescom.

With gamescom tomorrow, anyone got any guesses what’s being shown tomorrow, I heard it’s a city update?

My bet is that the PS5 release date is going to be announced.

Awesome that’s great to hear :slight_smile:

  1. Talked about Germany aviation and GA
  2. Germany WU and Cities Update and context about it, wants to complete every city in Germany
  3. Eurocopter announced (EC135) and new rescue mission, partners with the ADAC air rescue (support from 3 pilots for model and systems)
  4. both are available (by timezone im guessing?): WU and cities Germany 2020/2024, the copter for 2024

Wait so the EC135 is only available for 2024 :sob::sob:

atleast thats what he said, i havent checked any of it on the simulator yet, just waking up drinking coffee

Just checked 2024 and nothing is updated, going to check 2020 now, hopefully 2020 is not left out with the EC135

copy that, maybe it’s in the marketplace? don’t know why he said both were available now if theyre not there.

Im really hoping the EC135 is not a 2024 exclusive :sob:

he said it was in the 2024 sim, and that the city and WU is in 2020 and 2024

Nothing on both sims so far

For you impatient types, realize the presentation was on Germany time, while it’s still only 7:30am in Redmond - Microsoft’s tech team still have to roll out/turn on/Press the Big Red Button on sim content updates.

notice also that MSFS is officially “Xbox Play Anywhere”, so that adaptation will have been a significant part of SU3 - where more processing is done in the cloud, to enable playing on more devices.

MSFS 2020 is already a Play Anywhere title and MSFS 2024 has been one since launch.

A while back I browsed the Xbox Play Anywhere game catalog out of curiosity, and neither 2020 or 2024 was listed, but are listed now. Perhaps that’s just a (typical) thing where the web catalog is not up to date…
