Flight Simulator 2024

will my logitech fip gauges and control panels work witout spad.next

At this point we haven't seen an updated plugin for MSFS2024 for the Logitech FIP yet.

SPAD.next is however already compatible with MSFS2024.

I've seen conflicting info about the min core processor needed for FS2024. I've an i5 and I'm wondering if it will work with that. All the rest of my PC spec is fine.

According to the minimum specs, an i5 is insufficient.

However, the processor listed as the bare minimum is a processor from 2016. If your processor is a more recent i5-processor it might work, but we can't give any guarantees.

Can MSFS2020 and MSFS2024 coexist on the same computer? I want to finialize my bushtrips on MSFS2020.

Yes, MSFS2020 and MSFS2024 can coexist on the same system as they are different apps and are installed in different directories.

Can i use the PMDG a/c which i installed in FS2020, and do FS2020 and FS2024 bite each other?

MSFS2020 and MSFS2024 can be installed on the same system without biting each other.

It's not sure yet if you can install the MSFS2020 version of PMDG without issues (or cost) in MSFS2024 as well. This is something to decided for by the aircraft creator. For as far as we know now (and this might change); you will need two separate community folders (if you install on both flight simulators), which means that add-ons need to times the disk space as well. Perhaps working with linked folders, as the add-on managers do, can solve this in the future.

Which version shall i buy for PC, i can't find out if there is any difference between Xbox version and PC version? Regards Tomas (Denmark)

There is no difference between the PC- or Xbox-version. The product key works on both PC and Xbox.

Will there be Cessna 172, 182 G-1000, Cubs (and other tail daggers) on the Aviator edition.

We've updated our product page with information about available planes in each version; you can find an overview here.

Will the boxed version require the dvd to be inserted into the computer drive in order to start and use the SIM?

There won't be a DVD-version of Microsoft Flightsimulator 2024.

Will there be a physical version of FS2024, like with the release of FS2020?

Yes, a physical version will be available, but that will contain a download code (and not DVD's, as with MSFS2020).

Will piper aircraft be included?

Unfortunately, Piper Aircraft are not scheduled to be in the initial release of MSFS2024.

System Requirements

For PC you'll need at least (minimum) an AMD Ryzen 5 2600X or Initel Core i7-6800K processor, with a Radeon RX 5700 or GeForce GTX 970 GPU.

Other than that you need 16 GB RAM and 50 GB HDD.

As someone who plays MSFS 2020 on the Xbox Series X, I purchased the "Premium" upgrade over the "free" version received through Game Pass. The premium upgrade came with additional planes, challenges, scenery updates, airports, etc., Will everything I have received through the premium upgrade, and all the additional planes I have purchased, need to be paid for again to play MSFS 2024 when that arrives via Game Pass?

We haven't seen any statement about this yet, but as all MSFS2020 add-ons purchased via the marketplace will also be available in MSFS2024, we expect this will be the case for the deluxe and premium deluxe aircraft as well.

With the new career path, do you know if players will start basic and overtime after doing jobs, we'll get better planes? is there a money management system where players earn money from jobs?

At this moment there isn't much information about carreer mode.
What we do know is that you have to get the proper licenses to fly in a particular plane. You start with a small aircraft, before you can fly the bigger ones.
