It’s not just planes anymore however, as Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 introduces a number of new missions such as firefighting or search-and-rescue. These different kinds of missions can be explored in the game’s Career mode, and naturally, they require more specialized craft.

In mypreview of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, when I had the chance to play a couple of hours of a preview build, as well as talking to the global team crafting the experience, I wrote that “Even now, I’m fairly wet behind the ears when it comes to flight simulators, but everything I played was fun and challenging, and the global collaboration required to create this experience is genuinely awing. I’ll certainly be giving these flights another go when the game launches later this year.”
