Microsoft Flight Simulator, popularly known as Flight Simulator 2020, is a flight simulation game developed by Asobo Studio. The game is going to be published by Xbox Game Studios exclusively for Microsoft Windows and Xbox One. The makers have confirmed August 18, 2020, as the release date for Flight Simulator 2020. But the makers will only be releasing the PC version of the game. Reportedly, the game is so heavy that it is going to be delivered on a total of 10 DVDs.  It might sound a bit much but this would surely be a boon for those with slow or severely constrained internet connections. The game will give the players an opportunity to fly the plane on Earth using textures and topographical data from Bing Maps. It will also feature some 3-D representations of the world's features, such as terrain, trees, grass, buildings, and water which will be created with the help of Microsoft Azure technology.
