I purchased an Xbox S specifically for running this game. I used to own MS FS prior to the year 2000, and I was very intrigued when this version came out. FS 2020 lives up to the hype–it does an excellent job as a true-to-life simulator.
If there are weaknesses, it would be that the included basic flight training lessons could be more detailed. The lessons are good, but short, with most of them coming in at around 5 to 10 minutes. There could have been more of them included with greater variety, for instance with some training for turbo-prop aircraft, too. As it happens, though, there are third-party sim pilot lessons available within the game’s internal “Marketplace” store which look to be pretty good, too.
I am not generally a MicroSoft fan, but this simulator is very well done, and the team that designed it did a great job. It is everything that my previous experience led me to expect. While I have not compared it with X-Plane, FS 2020 on Xbox S performs adequately for me in every way, even if the console controller is a bit limiting and the true-to-life scenery lags in loading a bit. The flight realism does not lag in my experience.

This is even better than the last time I used flight simulator. The graphics are incredible, with a lot of attention to detail. Only problem I’m having is finding my credentials from an old computer to access the software. But otherwise it’s great.

Just love this game. The visuals are amazing. Gameplay & flight physics are on point. Only gripe was it would not able to install on an NvMe drive. Tried every trick from every message forum. Works very well on Samsung 860 SSD

Game doesn’t work . Waste of time and money don’t buy. Go look at the reviews of this game on Xbox . Everyone has the same issue.

Great game. Very challenging and fabulous graphics.

Game was a perfect stocking stuffer. Now can play on xbox instead of just phone.
Logss –
This game is great, I love how accurate it is to real life. I didnt expect this game to be so picture perfect to what it was like to fly a plane, and im amazed, my only issue is that I want to fly long distances, but I dont know how to make time go faster, but thats just a me thing. Otherwise , the game rates at about 89/100

I have always a good flight simulator and this fits the bill. So far, I have only used it on my gaming PC but it works great as long as you use an external controller. I use the one from my Xbox. It was a bit difficult to setup the digital version using Xbox for PC but it eventually worked.

I bought this for my 11 year old who loves any type of airplane. This didn’t meet his excitement, he thought he was going to love it only to barely ever play it. This would be better with actual controllers.
But the cost is to great in my opinion for a single game.
