Exciting News from Microsoft, FSX

Posted on

Microsoft has some exiting news to share as of this afternoon! The ACES team has been busy working away on the next two updates for Flight Simulator X; Service Pack 1 and the DirectX 10 update, but they also wanted to give you a first look at something even bigger that’s coming soon. This fall, Microsoft will be releasing their first expansion pack in years: Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline!

Microsoft ACES Team writes, "This latest addition to the award-winning “Flight Simulator” franchise will introduce new features, including multi player air racing, new missions, and all-new aircraft, including the legendary P-51 Mustang. Building on the rich visuals and amazing realism of our platform, Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline will be available this holiday season for Flight Simulator X customers running either Windows XP or Windows Vista. In addition, Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline will take advantage of Windows Vista and DirectX 10 to deliver breathtaking graphics and dynamic environments for an even more immersive experience."

Service Pack 1 for Flight Simulator X is tentatively scheduled for an April release and will include a targeted set of performance and content enhancements to address the most common customer requests. In addition, work continues on the DirectX 10 visual update for Flight Simulator X, which will be available as a free download around the launch of Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline.
