READY FOR TAKEOFF

If your tables work up and brings your seats into an upright position: the Microsoft Flight Simulator sets at departure. After the technically impressive simulation was published last year for the PC, Microsoft now also sends a version for the Xbox Series X | S afterwards. Whether this is just as enthusiastic, you will learn in our test. Microsoft has provided us for a pre-release version. Thanks a lot for this!

As the name already reveals, the Microsoft Flight Simulator awaits you a true simulation of modern flying. With a total of 20 authentic aircraft, from the agile Cessna to the mighty Boeing 747, you start from one of the over 37,000 airfields worldwide in the freedom of the sky. Because in a technical masterpiece, the Microsoft Flight Simulator manages to map the entire earth without visible loading times and in authentic scale!

The Microsoft's Cloud Infrastructure makes it possible, because although the Microsoft Flight Simulator itself takes a good 100 gigabytes on your plate, the true magic in the cloud. During your flights, the game loads a quick and stable internet connection provided, satellite and image data from Microsoft's in-house map service bing maps to build a high-resolution virtual world for you. Nearly 2,000 terabyte of data feed your tours around the globe - and this data refusal is worthwhile.

Although 30 well-known airports as well as numerous major cities and sights have been modeled by hand. But every house and the forest worldwide formulate the original, which can not be the purse of Microsoft. And right here comes the cloud as well as an in-house Ki into the game that generates the bing data as well as faithful 3D models generated. That just looks to the distance deceptively real, even if one or the other building in the low flight then turned out as "cheating".

The use of the maps data has a further advantage. While other Open World Playing like Forza Horizon 4 or The Crew, they are rebuilt, but they are scrolled together in terms of field, they really get the entire world in the Microsoft Flight Simulator. Just as you can experience them in the real world and look at a map service. This also means that your street, your house, your former elementary school, your favorite stadium can be found and can be experienced for you from the air. Here, however, houses are used outside of the large metropolises, which are not much together with the real buildings. For an authentic experience from the air, this is enough.
