Crash simulator! (I don't mean the plane)

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is a flight simulation video game developed by Asobo Studio and published by Xbox Game Studios. The successor to Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020), the game was released on November 19, 2024, for Windows and the Xbox Series X/S.

New mission types include aerial firefighting, air search and rescue, helicopter cargo hook transport, air ambulance, cropdusting, mountain rescue, skydiving, commercial aviation, aerial crane construction, outsize cargo transport with the Airbus Beluga, arctic cargo transport with the Airbus A400M, VIP air charter and executive transport, air racing, weather reconnaissance, experimental aircraft testing, and nap-of-the-earth flight with the A-10 Warthog. New aircraft types include gliders, airships, and hot air balloons.[1] New environmental features include wildfires, snow, tornadoes, auroras, animal migration and herds, live marine and flight tracking, the four seasons, and better ground traffic reporting.[2][1]

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is a standalone version, but Microsoft stated that "virtually all" addons purchased on Flight Simulator's online marketplace for the previous version will work with the new release.[3] Whether external third-party addons will be supported is unclear.[1] The company described the new missions and aircraft as part of aviation career modes. 2024 features an EFB (electronic flight bag), improved physics engine with greater control for addons' flight dynamics, improved electrical, pneumatic, fuel, and hydraulic aircraft systems and avionics, and multithreading for better performance.
