If Microsoft Flight Simulator is a technical slap in the face, the game isn’t necessarily a paragon of optimization. Microsoft knows this and great things are in the works.
A world update has just been deployed and focuses on Australia. The video above gives you a good overview. It’s up to you to fly over the world’s largest coral reef or even the beauty of Mount Wellington. But that’s not all.
Did you say optimization?
In addition to the content itself, Microsoft has announced that it has been working on a very big innovation, and last but not least it concerns optimization: Adding DLSS 2.0
Direction DX12
Finally, if Microsoft Flight Simulator offers two versions of DirectX, namely DirectX 11 and DirectX 12, version 11 currently offers much higher performance. The new update therefore aims to change this trend and optimize DX12.
When the World Australia update is available, the optimization update should land a little later in the year (no further details).
