Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024could land on PlayStation 5 consoles by the end of 2025, according to one leaker. Xbox has made a habit lately of releasing its once-exclusive titles on other platforms, most notably the PS5, and it doesn’t look like it’s slowing down any time soon. Sony fans should keep their eyes peeled for a potentialMicrosoft Flight Simulator 2024announcement later this year.
The rumor thatMFS 2024could come to PS5 and Nintendo Switch 2first emerged in January 2025, following rumblings thatHalomay make the jump from exclusivity, too. Neither Microsoft nor Sony has confirmed the news yet, but it’s easy to believe in light of all the other first-party games Xbox has been bringing to other consoles. Fans may not need to wait too long for another franchise to join this trend, either.
Leaker NateTheHate, who’s had a streak of accurate predictions lately, responded to Twitter user Owen Sanderson to confirm thatMicrosoft Flight Simulatorwas, in fact, coming to PS5. He also stated that it would be sometime in 2025, but that he didn’t have a specific window. He suggested it may come close to the game’s one-year anniversary, which would mean the PlayStation version could come out in November. Former Xbox exclusiveSTALKER 2: Heart of Chornobylis also releasing on PS5 in late 2025, so the end of the year could be a busy time for Sony users hoping to play Microsoft-owned games.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Could Come to PlayStation 5 in Late 2025
ReleasingFlight Simulatoron PlayStation would be a landmark move for Microsoft, but a sensible one. Bringing a title that bears the company’s name to its biggest competition is a significant statement about its commitment to moving away from exclusivity. Considering howMFS 2024was one of the best-selling Xbox Store games of 2024, though, it makes a lot of economic sense as well and it never hurts to expand the audience for a proven bestseller.
BeyondMicrosoft Flight Simulator, leakers and industry insiders believe Xbox has far more in store for PlayStation users. The Verge’s Tom Warren has said thatStarfieldcould get a PS5 version in 2025, something NateTheHate has also confirmed. The long-standing rumors of aHalorelease on PlayStation and Switch could still happen, too. While there are still a lot of unknowns, it’s an exciting time to be both an Xbox and PlayStation fan.
