Microsoft Flight Simulator is already on the runway and preparing to take off, and today Flight Sim boss Jorg Neumann confirmed that pilots who want to strap a headset to their face and enjoy the magic of flying in VR will be able to do so pretty soon. According to Neumann, VR support will be available in time for the launch of the HP Reverb G2 headset. HP's headset, which is being designed in collaboration with Microsoft and Valve, doesn't have a hard release date yet, but it's coming this autumn. A list of headsets it will be compatible with hasn't been announced yet, but we'll find out soon. Earlier this week, Asobo announced that Flight Sim also supports TrackIR, and you won't have to wait for that at all. It was added to the closed beta build, which has been available to alpha testers for a couple of days already. The closed beta properly begins today.
Microsoft Flight Simulator launches on the Microsoft Store and Xbox Game Pass on August 18, alongside the just-announced Steam version.
