What this edition adds

The Game of the Year Edition delivers 25 highly detailed aircraft and 38 hand-crafted airports, expanding the base simulator with six new Discovery Flights and updated weather systems. It runs on Xbox Series X|S and Windows 10 or 11 PCs and is optimised for Xbox Series X|S hardware. Existing owners on PC, Xbox Series X|S or Xbox Game Pass receive the extra content as a free update.

Check your PC before buying

Verify that your system meets at least the minimum requirements: a CPU equivalent to an Intel Core i5-4460 or AMD Ryzen 3 1200, 8 GB of RAM, Windows 10 64-bit, a graphics card such as Radeon RX 570 or GeForce GTX 770 with 2048 MB dedicated video memory, pixel and vertex shader 5.0, and 150 GB of free disk space. The DRM is tied to the Xbox and Windows store ecosystems.

Thermals noise and power in normal use

As a digital download the title itself produces no heat, noise or power draw; those characteristics depend entirely on the hardware running it. Meeting the recommended specification — for example an Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 5 1500X, 16 GB RAM, Radeon RX 590 or GeForce GTX 970 with 4096 MB video memory, shader model 5.1 and the same 150 GB storage — will typically result in higher sustained GPU loads and correspondingly greater thermal output and fan noise than the minimum configuration.
