Microsoft Flight Simulator Xbox File Size Nears 100GB

The Microsoft Flight Simulator Xbox file size has been revealed, and it's almost 100GB just for the Standard edition of the game.

excaliburps1770d ago

Warzone and other Call of Duty patches have made me immune to thist. LOL!

Father__Merrin1770d ago

A lot of console xbox fans are in for dissapointment. They think this will be a great game and fly about but it's a sim

I'm looking forward to the easiest cheevos and what thier percentage us

Tedakin1770d ago

Yeah I think it's a game I'll screw with for a day or 2 and get tired of it. The Top Gun thing may be cool later this year.

Orchard1769d ago

Does any gamer really not know what MS Flight Simulator is? It's been a pretty well known franchise for decades now and it's also right there in the name...

gamer78041769d ago

They’ve updated this for console and have added an easy mode. Similar to other sims you can make it as hard as you want it to be.

Neonridr1769d ago

Any game that has "Simulator" in the title pretty much guarantees it isn't for the casuals.

MoonConquistador1769d ago

I tend to agree however with gamepass access, a lot of people who might have skipped it because it's "too simmy" (is this even a thing) will get to try it out .

So you'll get casuals and hardcore gamers (and all other pigeonholes in between) trying it out. Some will love, some will hate it.

In that sense, it's just like most other games that release on the x box platform.

ThinkThink1769d ago

What about Goat Simulator?

Neonridr1769d ago

@MoonConquistador - oh for sure, gamepass changes all that.

@ThinkThink - lol, you got me there.

Sayai jin1769d ago

The name and type of game is in the title so I think you are a bit disillusioned and disingenuous. "Console Xbox fans" that is as redundant as your comment is trolly. People will download the game as part of their subscription and pkay of the like or delete it if they don't. It's a nice perk.

Good thing I have the memory expansion.

thesoftware7301770d ago

Ted Ditto..

But I already have it on PC...so will check it on SX and probably get rid of it 🤣🤣..

GP man, GP.

CaptainHenry9161769d ago

I have it on PC too unfortunately it won't be the same experience on inferior hardware. Microsoft Flight Simulator is a beast to run on PC

Sayai jin1769d ago

While it is overproced, I am glad they had
It avaialble at launch.

Hellcat20201770d ago

I'll download it just to see how it runs on the OG Xbox one

HankHill1770d ago (Edited 1770d ago )

I thought it was only available on Xbox Series S and X?

iplay1up21769d ago (Edited 1769d ago )

There isn't even a release date for last gen Flight Simulator. Only Series X/S. I just did a search. It will eventually come to Xbox One through X Cloud.

I wouldn't want to play this on last gen anyway. This is the most advanced Sim ever made. There are videos on YouTube about it. The tech behind this is amazing! Every single plane has been licensed and digitally scanned. Including the cockpits. Now Microsoft is adding Helicopters too.

Already pre installed on my Series X! Along with the Ascent.

iplay1up21769d ago (Edited 1769d ago )

Here is a link that talks about X Cloud, and it specifically mentions Flight Simulator coming to it. So eventually you can play it on the OG Xbox One. Also with X Cloud, it might run better than I originally thought it would on Xbox One.

Then your Xbox would sound like the notorious ps4 jet engine sound

glennhkboy1769d ago

It will only be available on Series X/S.

Sayai jin1769d ago (Edited 1769d ago )

Nah man, you can still pkay it. You have to stream it on Xb1. It's not a twitch shooter so it may stream just fine.

Expected and I'm ready. This just the start, I bet this game ends up over 150 - 200 GB once all the DLC starts rolling in!
