flight simulator It is, surely, the most extraordinary experience that we will ever live inside a flight simulator, and Microsoft is not only clear about that, but also strives to demonstrate it with each new content that it projects for the coming months. It has nothing to do with the fact that the game has already turned three years behind it: It looks like it still has a lot of rope ahead.
And proof of it is everything we saw yesterday in the famous direct from Microsoft on Xboxwhich included a part dedicated to the flight simulator par excellence, where we could see some flying devices and game modes that are going to come completely free to flight simulator. A development that you have available both on PC and on consoles and that aspires to become the absolute reference of the genre.
Fly across the barren lands of Arrakis
Although we will tell you about other news later, the one that surely caught the most attention was that we will have a completely free DLC at the end of the year that will accompany the premiere of the second part of DuneDenis Villeneuve’s film that will hit theaters on November 3 and that has convinced Redmond to live the experience of piloting an ornithopter like the one you can see in the opening image of this article.
Extra content that It will not only come to the Xbox versions, but also to PC, where we can live a much more immersive experience thanks to VR glasses connected to the computer. Of course, in addition to the ship, we will also be able to cross the scenes of the film, of an arid and desert planet where the revenge story of Paul Atreides and all the towns and fighters who decide to support him in his adventure takes place.
Until 2024 and beyond
In any case, not only Dune the player will live flight simulator because it’s cool, the most important thing, it was announced before seeing that design so characteristic of ornithopters of the film, since Microsoft prepares a good number of innovations for the coming year. In 2024 we will see professional missions linked to piloting arrive, such as firefighting, personnel transport to offshore oil platforms, air medical emergencies, field fumigation, executive transport, experimental flights, etc.
Another of the new legs of flight simulator in 2024 it will be the appearance of sporting events, with light aircraft like those who compete in some races like the Red Bull Air Race World Championship where we must pass between some obstacles to set the fastest lap around the circuit. A sport that in the real world is extraordinarily dangerous and that with the Microsoft game things will be much more fun and safe.
all these changes they will not be immediate and will be landing in flight simulator throughout the next year, except for the DLC of Dunewhich will accompany the premiere of the film at the end of 2023. Remember that we already had something similar with the mythical Top Gun II and their combat fighters, which gradually makes the game client grow out of control
