The mainline series had sat dormant for over one decade, with its last full-fledged simulation, Microsoft Flight Simulator X, released back in 2006. Microsoft Flight Simulator falls among Redmond's classic franchises, even predating their now-fundamental products like Windows and Microsoft Office. The $90 Deluxe Edition features five more aircraft and five more handcrafted airports, while the $120 Premium Deluxe Edition includes ten additional aircraft and hand-tweaked airports over the base game. We also see two premium editions, which, while the same moment-to-moment gameplay, pack supplementary content behind a costlier price tag. This edition is available through a one-time $60 purchase, or through its Xbox Game Pass subscriptions. While providing the ability to land anywhere on the planet, the upgraded airports have received further love from the development team, updated through handmade assets and custom tweaks for a true-to-life reflection.

The base Microsoft Flight Simulator bundle ships a full globetrotting experience, with a list of 20 planes and 20 handcrafted airports, as of release.

While each provides the same foundations as previously advertised, its most costly editions come with additional bonus aircraft and handcrafted airports.

Microsoft Flight Simulator offers three available versions, split across the base game, and two premium, higher-priced alternatives.
