The earlier announcement of bringing "Microsoft Flight Simulator" to Xbox Series X/S was not entirely surprising considering its success on PC since it launched last summer. While plans for bringing the popular game to the last-gen console are not confirmed, its possibility cannot be ruled out yet.
Microsoft Flight Simulator on Xbox One? Dev says it's about timing
The upcoming release of "Microsoft Flight Simulator" on Xbox Series X/S will mark the franchise's first time launching consoles. And the powerful specs these hardware products have likely made it possible. However, with the shortage of new-gen consoles still a persisting problem for many gamers around the world, many have been wondering if there is a chance for the game to arrive on Xbox One as well.
When asked about a potential launch on the Xbox One system, "Microsoft Flight Simulator" head Jorg Neumann did not explicitly dismiss the topic in an interview with Eurogamer. "I guess it's a timing thing," Neumann said. "Obviously memory matters. Certainly on Ultra settings, you need a big PC - well, that's a lot, lot more memory than what you had on an Xbox One." The game's minimum requirements include at least 150GB of storage.
Neumann further said they are focused on getting the "Microsoft Flight Simulator" Xbox Series X/S versions done. He then suggested that the team could start exploring other plans once those are completed, possibly, an Xbox One port. Giving Xbox One owners more hope, Neumann added his team “never close doors” while also hinting at “other options” to play the sim on the last-gen console. However, he did not reveal them yet. A specific release date for the Xbox Series X/S launch on new-gen consoles has yet to be announced. But "Microsoft Flight Simulator" is confirmed to arrive sometime in summer this year.

The Macau pack being developed by SamScene3D is also spotted in a preview and would soon feature some parts of the city's airport.
