Asobo Studio has shared the system requirements for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, ahead of its release on November 19 for PC and Xbox Series X/S. Excitingly, the game will be available on Game Pass from day one, so subscribers can jump into the cockpit right away. Compared to the 2020 version, the new game has some interesting updates — it requires less storage space but asks for more RAM, reflecting the advanced features that are sure to impress players.
In a notable improvement, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 will only need 50 GB of space on your drive, a big drop from the 150 GB that its predecessor required. This is great news for those managing their storage, giving them more room to install other games or applications. On the flip side, the RAM requirements have jumped significantly, with 64 GB recommended for the “ideal” setup. This increase suggests the game is even more complex and immersive, likely due to more realistic environments, enhanced weather effects, and improved world-building.
