This Week in Flight Simulation News - July 14 to July 20, 2025

Flight simulation news is basically a non-stop cycle, with relevant reveals and releases shared every day. Yet, not everyone has the time to keep track of all of them.

That’s why we have published our 13th weekly video overview, including the major announcements and releases from the past week.

Incidentally, the past week also saw our first anniversary, so it’s quite special. Our website was officially launched on July 17, 2024.

Of course, our videos are published on top of our daily news coverage, which isn’t going anywhere. It’s simply a handy weekly recap presented in a convenient format for those who prefer to consume their news this way.

It won’t cover absolutely all the news from last week, but it provides a comprehensive selection of releases and reveals painting a fairly complete snapshot of the industry. Incidentally, you can watch the tenth episode from last week if you so wish.

This week, we covered major flight simulators like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, MSFS 2020, and X-Plane 12. Of course, we also usually cover other sims when they are featured in major news.

If you want even more news and more reveals, you can read our daily coverage, which you’ll also find conveniently linked below the video.

Without further ado, you can watch the 13th episode below. Of course, we’d appreciate it if you could like the video and subscribe to our growing YouTube channel, as that’s always extremely helpful and appreciated.
