Microsoft released this Thursday (19) the minimum, recommended and ideal requirements to run Flight Simulator 2024 on PC. The base game will take up less internal storage space, as the company has chosen to run a lot of things directly from the cloud.
If this is a bit of a relief for hard drives and SSDs, on the other hand it raises a warning sign for users: they will need a stable, good quality connection and have a little patience to face longer loading times.
Adrenaline took part in the exclusive Flight Simulator 2024 presentation event, which took place in the Grand Canyon in the United States. There, we played for a few hours, talked to the developers, and even took a helicopter ride to compare the simulation with reality.
