Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 is close to reality. So far, the authentic simulation game has also been a prime example of immersive gameplay - from now on the flight simulator gains even more realism: the new update also lets players climb into the cockpit using VR hardware.  


Microsoft had already confirmed that the flight simulator would receive a virtual reality update in 2020. It wasn't long ago - and now the new feature is already available. This brings the developers a clear step closer to the goals set, realism, authenticity and immersion.

Flight simulator 2020 supports different VR glasses

According to Microsoft, the feedback from the community helped to roll out the VR update in the form that has now been published. In any case, the developers value the opinions, praise and criticism of the fans. So it's no wonder that the flight simulator in virtual reality was also set up as broadly as possible in terms of the executable hardware.

"Our goal was to make this update accessible to as many VR players as possible," the developers said. "To achieve this goal, we worked to make this free update compatible across a wide range of supported devices."
