In addition to those aircraft, Asobo will add eight new handcrafted airports-Leipzig/Halle Airport (EDDP), Allgäu Airport Memmingen (EDJA), Kassel Airport (EDVK), Lugano Airport (LSZA), Zurich Airport (LSZH), Luzern-Beromunster Airport (LSZO), Patrick Space Force Base (KCOF), and Marine Corps Air Station Miramar (KNKX)-and Discovery Flight missions at six new locations: Helsinki, Freiburg im Breisgau, Mecca, Monument Valley, Singapore, and Mount Cook. You can see several of the new planes in action in the trailer below. In addition to the jet, Flight Simulator will also add in four additional aircraft: the VoloCity, an air taxi that functions a bit like a helicopter the Pilatus PC-6 Porter, a Swiss plane that specializes in short takeoffs and landings, the CubCrafters NX Cub, a bushplane with a nose wheel and the Aviat Pitts Special S1S, a one-seater version of a plane that’s already in the game. In today’s announcement, Microsoft said it’s including the Super Hornet early because it “wanted simmers to have the opportunity to test their need for speed this holiday.”
#Microsoft flight simulator 2015 add ons screen update
We already knew that the sim would be adding in military jets as part of its upcoming Top Gun: Maverick expansion, but developer Asobo Studio delayed that content update to May 2022 after Paramount pushed the film back over COVID-19 worries.
Best of all, these goodies will be added to the game for existing players at no extra cost.Īctually, we should make that second best of all, because the actual best thing in the update is a jet: the Boeing F/A-18 Super Hornet. Later this year, Microsoft Flight Simulator is getting new content as part of a Game of the Year Edition re-release, including five new planes, eight new airports, six new missions, and more.
