You can fly around the world from the comfort of your own home with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, but is your PC up to snuff?
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 is the first flight sim that Microsoft has debuted in quite some time. It's absolutely gorgeous and offers you the freedom to travel around the entire globe at your leisure. Want to jet over to Tokyo to see what's going on? You can do that. More of a Manhattan person? Fly to Times Square and take a peek at your favorite Broadway theater.
But all of this freedom is particularly demanding on your PC. The game has so many planes to choose from, an entire world to render, and a wide variety of airports to let you fly out of. Of course it's going to be taxing on your PC!
If you're looking to take to the friendly skies anytime soon, check out Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020's system requirements below before takeoff.
