We know that Microsoft Flight Simulator has always been popular with Computeractive readers, but it’s typically been aimed at aviation enthusiasts rather than casual gamers. The last version, released in 2020, took the simulation to new levels of realism, with data from Bing Maps allowing virtual pilots to fly around the world in extraordinary detail. What there was less of, however, was an actual game that could give those who don’t obsess about flaps and ailerons more of a reason to pick up the software.
