However, it still looks impressive and the odd visual glitch is forgivable given how detailed everything is in this game. Sometimes I would fly through New York City and some skyscrapers would just not load into view correctly. The game also loads and renders to the best of the console’s ability most of the time. It creates a smoother viewing experience. It also helps a lot here due to the fact that Microsoft Flight Simulator does drop frames so often.

The game also takes advantage of all the fancy tech in the Xbox Series X so there is no screen tearing and the latency in movement feels next to nothing. There were times when the frame rate dropped and some mountains rendered while I was changing the camera but it is still damn impressive. The game runs at 4K 30FPS and is stable for the most part. Microsoft Flight Simulator also looks superb in motion and honestly, this is probably the most ambitious game ever to release on a console. A small irritation but easily forgotten once you have everything installed. That way I could put it to rest mode and come back later to enjoy it.

It would have been so much better to have these add-ons install outside of the game similar to other content on the console. This is most likely due to the game running at the same time. I felt as if the content packs just took hours to install even with a 1-gig speed line.

I did take issue with how slow this download was at times. I can then add and remove the content as I saw fit and everything downloaded in-game while I was flying through the air. These packs are a few gigabytes big and after downloading them all the game size increased by a further 30GB. This content included extra aircraft but most importantly, the asset packs that help enhance certain countries and regions around the world. Once installed, there is also a robust content management system where I could browse the store and download a range of add-ons for the game. Microsoft Flight Simulator comes in at over 100GB on the Xbox Series X which is not a small game by any means. It may be slower than using a mouse but gives you the freedom to explore the menus and navigate the switches in an aircraft a lot easier than before. This replaced the traditional D-pad movements and helps a lot. There is also a cursor that can be enabled at any time in the game. Sure, some movements and actions are layered on a combination of button presses that might be hard to memorise but the controller approach just works. After a few toggles and adjustments, it feels incredible to interact with. Again, this just goes to show how fantastic the game is. I had to sit and tweak a lot of the settings for a few days of playing just to tailor the experience to the way I expected it to play. I do have to say that even though the tutorial has been tailored for the controller, complicated movements often do plague the game. Everything has seen some sort of attention be it with the camera controls, how sensitive the analogue stick is or how fast the controller detects a button press. That is no longer the case with this port. I often tried to play with an Xbox Controller but the game constantly asked me to press keyboard buttons even though my backside was on the couch 3-meters away from the PC.

This eased me into the various ways I could move the camera, interact with the buttons and levers on an aircraft and generally navigate the world using a limited set of buttons.Įven on the PC version of Microsoft Flight Simulator, the controller experience was kinda lackluster. There is a new tutorial system that is centered around the controller too. Microsoft Flight Simulator on the Xbox Series X looks stunning in 4K and packs most of the visual bells and whistles you would expect from the game. The sheer enjoyment that comes from a console port of this kind is seen through how well it has been ported onto the platform. Microsoft Flight Simulator on Xbox means it is time to put your feet up, grab a controller and enjoy exploring the world. I dipped my toes in the PC release last year but to be honest, the game was way too buggy and crashed too often for me to enjoy it. Thankfully, Microsoft Flight Simulator has finally arrived on Xbox platforms and it is a dream. Either that or you just miss out on the experience completely because you don’t even own a gaming PC.

Most of the time, you sit back and think about all the money you’ll need to spend in order to get the massive, graphically demanding game to run on your PC. When you think about a Microsoft Flight Simulator game you don’t think about the experience on a console.
