Microsoft Flight Simulator Sequel Is Coming In 2024, But You Can Play A Dune Crossover Later This Year

The sci-fi world of Dune is coming to Microsoft Flight Simulator later this year, just in time for the premiere of Dune: Part Two. In addition, a full-fledged sequel to the flight sim, appropriately titled Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, is coming next year.

Revealed during Microsoft’s Xbox Games Showcase, a trailer accompanied by composer Hans Zimmer’s Oscar-winning Dune score shows players will be able to take to the skies of Dune’s titular desert planet, Arrakis, in one of the franchise’s iconic ornithopter vehicles. It looks like players will be able to scout spice mining operations judging from a brief glimpse of a spice harvester out in the deep desert. Wherever there is spice, there are also bout to be massive sand worms, though we don’t get a glimpse of one in this particular footage.
