A recent rumor suggests that Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 may soon be the next Xbox exclusive to be released on the PlayStation 5. Microsoft has been expanding its range of titles to PS5 since last year, and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 holds promise for simulation enthusiasts.

The game, launched in November 2024, initially faced criticism due to bugs and server issues, earning it a mixed to positive reception with an average critic score of 76 on OpenCritic, thanks to improvements made after its launch.

Recent Speculation

Microsoft seems eager to increase its player base for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. According to reports from the Polish site ppe, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is expected to arrive on PS5 in November 2025, with physical copies available in limited quantities.

Despite uncertainties surrounding the reliability of the source, earlier claims by leakster NateTheHate suggested that this title would eventually appear on PS5, likely a year after its Xbox debut.
