Microsoft and developers Asabo continue to consistently upgrade and enhance Microsoft Flight Simulator, even with a new version of the classic sim in the pipeline<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The latest addition is the serious upgrade of several of Europe\u2019s most popular cities with the team saying, \u201cThe Microsoft Flight Simulator team and its partners captured these renowned cities in exquisite detail using recent high-resolution aerial imagery, digital elevation data, and TIN (triangulated irregular network) surface modeling. This latest release invites simmers to choose their preferred aircraft to explore these vibrant locales, from the French Riviera to the skyscrapers of Stockholm.\u201d<\/p>\n

I actually thought that was a strange thing to say, \u2018the skyscrapers of Stockholm\u2019 as I have been there and can\u2019t remember it being overly notable for skyscrapers. Even a quick Google reveals a relatively flat, yet beautiful city. Ah well, we all always adore alliteration so we will ignore that.<\/p>\n

So these are the cities that have undergone the makeover this time around: \u2013 Sweden\u2019s Stockholm, France\u2019s Nice and neighboring Monaco, Portugal\u2019s Porto, and Spain\u2019s Barcelona and Madrid.<\/p>\n

As ever the update is available totally free of charge to Microsoft Flight Simmers (and the game is on Game Pass if you haven\u2019t tried it yet). Just head to the to in-game store and download it from there.<\/p>\n

A new Local Legend aircraft \u2013 the Short SC.7 Skyvan, which is known as the \u2018Flying Shoebox\u2019 has also been released and this horrific-looking rectangular plane can also be taken for a spin around the new terrain.<\/p>\n
