The Next Installment Of Microsoft Flight Simulator Will Feature Single Shard Multiplayer

Microsoft Flight Simulator fans will be happy to know that the game will be going multiplayer in the next installment of the popular flight simulator. The next game in the franchise will feature a variety of multiplayer modes to give wanna-be pilots some much-needed company while they soar above the clouds.

Live Players Mode features a single shared world that replicates real-world time, weather conditions, and air traffic data in real-time. All Players Mode gives players the option to adjust the above settings depending on their preference. And lastly, Groups Mode. This mode allows players to create their own private world with friends and lets them adjust time and weather settings.

The game is currently in Alpha testing and will be coming out later this year. In the meantime, you can check out the game’s multiplayer features in the video below. You can also head over to the Microsoft Flight Simulator official site to learn more.
