Microsoft Flight Simulator will take up around 100GB on your Xbox

^^^^^^^^^

lol :P

@Syn_Valence: said nobody ever 😂

How would this game NOT take up a lot of space given the assets?

Getting this on GamePass day 1. MFS looks stunning,Best I’ve seen on consoles so far?

Probably best for the entirety of this gen. It's life like.

It ended up taking a little over 97gb on the Xbox Series X. Download it this morning.

I see lots of Xbox fans buying it. It has been extremely popular on Microsoft Windows PC as well.

Already more people playing this game in two weeks then the entire time Returnal has been out.

Microsoft Flight Simulator has amassed quite a number of players since its release two weeks ago.

Microsoft Flight Simulator has over 1 million unique players to date, and it is the biggest game launch in Xbox Game Pass for PC history

97.2 GB on mine

edit: it allows me to open it but I get this message when I do

@girlusocrazy: well MS is happy with those numbers. I bought it for PC when it came out. But my work PC wouldn’t run it. Good thing it’s Game Anywhere so it already downloaded on my Xbox at no extra cost 😎

@regnaston: I get the same pop-up screen as well. And yes,it’s 97.2gb.

Just downloaded. 5 days... looking forward to it.

Can't wait to redo the landing challenges, that was so fun.

$89

This. I would assume this would be a big game.

Anyone flew over their home, yet?

I'm interested to see how up-to-date the maps are, thought I read they're feed via satellite images? The house I'm in wasn't here 8 months ago.

You can uninstall the offline maps and just use streaming of them and that will reduce the size by around 40Gb (or so I read )

I had downloaded it as part of Gamepass, but there is a 27GB update today. The good news is that the download is currently at 175mb/s, so it shouldn't' take long to download. I can't wait until I get off work to play, though I do have concerns that I'm going to quit playing after a few days due to lack of an objective.
