we have yet to open this as it was purchased as a gift for our nephew, but the previews and reviews shows this game to be stunning which improves on the previous version.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son absolutely loves this game. The kit was a great gift, it has a collector's case and a high quality lanyard. \n\nI know there are a lot of reviews on the game being buggy but as of late December 2024 when we first installed the game he has had zero issues. \nUsing RXT 4070ti graphics card.

it is just a digital redeem code, do not get fooled by the DVD case look, it is a code with a flashy card holder. read very carefully, i think this is false advertisement.

it launched with a ton of bugs in career mode. better to wait until career mode gets fixed if that's something you're interested in.

Our whole family is having the best time flying over our house and around our town. Everything is so realistic, it is amazing!

Nice graphics and planes look great.\nXmas present for grandkids.

Love MS Flight Sim - works great on the Xbox with a joystick

Awesome graphics, very realistic flights.

Fun and challenging game.

Everything looks great!

I'm tired of people "reviewing" a product and giving it ONE star because the box didn't impress them or some other trivial thing that has nothing to do with the actual product. I see it all the time in various product reviews. I just wanted to counter the negative "reviews" at this point as it is unfair to the actual product. This current version of Microsoft Flight Simulator has just launched and although the launch was extremely flawed, this version has some maturing to do so it can be truly appreciated for what Microsoft is attempting to achieve. It's no different than any of their previous flight sim titles. It's definitely an improvement over the 2020 version so far and it will only get better over time.

Excelente game

Looking past the colossal failure of a launch, the game is a minefield of bugs. \n\nAircraft have non-working lights, non-working control surfaces, liveries that will not load, broken/missing sounds, pilots/copilots that appear outside the aircraft, grossly underpowered aircraft, and missing features shown in the promo video.

As expected. Is going to improve the bugs over time.

There's no game in the box!!!!

Great product with amazing graphics! Love flying to all of the places available and looking at the scenery.

Nice but hard to operate Nice but hard to operate

This is a hyped up plastic box with higher end lanyard badge with Flight Simulator branding and flight simulator card. On the back of the paper card is a premium deluxe Flight Simulator 2024 game code. Unless you are in need of a lanyard badge just download the game and skip the "SteelBook".

Nice but hard to operate

Every patch lists 100+ bugs. My passengers in career mode are hanging outside of the plane, upside down. Constant 80mph crosswind, no matter which mission. Game crashes, losing my career mission money. No marketplace until next year. If you uncheck "clouds", it re-checks it 2 seconds later. Then even though you unchecked "clouds", you get LOTS of clouds anyway.\n\nTrim will randomly spike to 100% uptrim (even with auto-trim disabled), stalling your plane and crashing you into the ground.

I pre-ordered this game a few weeks ago and looking forward to playing but been waiting in queue for a few hours. Microsoft didn't learn their lesson from Flight Simulator 2020.\n\nThe included badge is nice.

This game it’s too complicated, requires expensive console, it uses high memory tech. Tried to returned but guess what, if you don’t like it too bad, you can’t return it. I’m sure there’s benefits for Digital games but I don’t recommend and did not like, maybe for heavy gamers but sit you just starting out stick to disc. This game made me break up with Best Buy, I’m done with Best Buy all together for not trying to help out a entry level gamer.
