Following 4 decades of PC exclusivity and further 9-months of indefinite waiting, Xbox One users will finally be able to soar the skies in Microsoft\u2019s revolutionary Flight Simulator. Starting March 1, 2022, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 will be available on Xbox One, mobile phones, and PCs (on browsers) via Xbox\u2019s Cloud Gaming service. Native PC and Xbox X\/S versions of the game were released back in August 2020 and July 2021 respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had previously reported Xbox\u2019s plans to bring MSFS to its Xbox One<\/a> console. The company\u2019s press release<\/a>, dated June 13, 2021, was a clear indication of the company\u2019s intentions to open up the skies to an endless community of Xbox One users, stating, “For the millions of people who play on Xbox One consoles today, we are looking forward to sharing more about how we will bring many of these next-gen games, such as Microsoft Flight Simulator, to your console through Xbox Cloud Gaming, just like we do with mobile devices, tablets, and browsers<\/em>\u201d. Only 9 months later, Xbox came through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Xbox cloud gaming service being powered by custom Xbox Series X hardware, the users will be able to enjoy gameplay identical to that of Xbox S or X. Unlike the native Xbox version of the game, however, the cloud version doesn\u2019t support add-ons purchased through un-official marketplaces. Neither does it support the host of controllers and accessories compatible with the native version of the game<\/a>. That being said, if you are comfortable soaring the skies with a standard Xbox gamepad, the game offers roughly the same immersive experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
