Microsoft Flight Simulator delivers an incredibly immersive experience on PCs, and that should only be enhanced by playing in virtual reality. With a wider field of view, immersion within a headset, and the fact that you'll use a combination of a headset and controllers to fly within the game, Microsoft flight Simulator within VR should be incredibly realistic.

The flight sim community has been a very active and insightful partner in shaping how the team approached VR, and continues to be a critical partner in our continued development as we make further improvements and add new features to the simulation.
