The Microsoft Flight Simulator developer has not ruled out an Xbox One port

In December, Microsoft announced that Microsoft Flight Simulator would be released for the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S later this year, with no mention of the simulator’s arrival on the Xbox One. Now, Jorg Neumann of Asbo Studio revealed that a version of the Xbox One may still be on the cards.

When asked about Microsoft Flight Simulator and the older Xbox console, Neumann told Eurogamer: “Obviously, memory matters. Certainly in Ultra settings, you need a big PC – well, that’s a lot, a lot more memory than you had on an Xbox One. So it’s a journey, like most things, you know – we’re going to make the Xbox Series X and S versions and then we’ll take care of that. We never close the doors and there are other options, although it’s a little too early to talk about it. “Eurogamer theorizes that an xCloud version of Microsoft Flight Simulator for Xbox One could be the way to go, with xCloud servers doing all the heavy lifting and broadcasting the sim to less powerful consoles.

Although you need a very powerful PC to run Microsoft Flight Simulator, Neumann says the Series X | Flight simulator s will be a “very similar” experience, but not quite the same.

Microsoft Flight Simulator arrives on Xbox Series X | Only this summer.
