Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 – Global Release Timings Revealed

The next instalment in the flight sim franchise is due out for Xbox Series X/S and PC a week from now, on November 19.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is one of multiple major console exclusive titles lined up for release on Xbox in the final weeks of the year, and with its launch now just a week away, Microsoft has shared the exact timings for when the game will unlock on the day of its release in different parts of the world.

The game will launch simultaneously worldwide, going live for players on all platformers on November 19 at 8 AM Pacific / 11 AM Eastern. That will be 4 PM in London, 1 AM on November 20 in Japan, and 3 AM in Sydney. Check out the tweet below (which takes the form of an airport arrivals board, delightfully enough) for the full release timings.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 will be available on Xbox Series X/S and PC, and will also be available to Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass PC subscribers. Unsurprisingly, the game’s system requirements on PC are quite demanding. Check out the full requirements through here.
