Microsoft Flight Simulator will be available July 27 for Xbox Series X and S 27

Microsoft will release the console version of Flight Simulator on July 27. The game will only be playable on Xbox Series X and S and is part of the Game Pass subscription. In the fall, the game will receive an expansion, linked to the Top Gun Maverick movie.

Microsoft shows a trailer of the console version and also briefly shows at the end that the game will get a free expansion, titled Top Gun Maverick. It shows fighter jets and an aircraft carrier. The trailer also references the movie of the same name, which will be released in November this year. The expansion seems to be linked to that.

It was already known that Flight Simulator would come to consoles, but a release date was not mentioned before. Microsoft has now announced that Xbox gamers will be able to play the game on Series X and S consoles starting July 27. The game is not coming to Xbox One consoles.
