Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1.86/day in the week to Aug 19 → 4.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I've been playing FSX for nearly a decade and I have to say that it is one of the best experiences for simulation flying. While its age is showing, it makes up for its simple set up, efficiency, and flexibility. With tons of freeware aircraft available on the internet, there are tons of open options for all types of flyers. My main issue? I keep coming across a bug where my FSX has a significantly high chance of completely crashing after 30 minutes of gameplay. I know this isn't a common thing, but if it is for you, I'd recomend occasionally saving your flight sessions (or adjusting settings and whatnot, I'm not really sure). Other than that, the airports that you can fly to are becoming increasingly outdated, so it may not be realistic to todays standards. Overall, very solid simulator; happy flying!

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 12: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

крутая игра из 25 посадок 1000 крушений
This was my favorite flight sim for a very long time. I first played it on cd version for windows when it came out in 2007. I enjoyed using FSPassengers so much I never bought MSFS 2000 until this summer. I was holding off hoping and waiting for an all inclusive add on that it was. This game still isn't bad today though for nostalgic flights. Not sure if I would pay the $25 for it I would wait for it to go on a sale. This is still probably in most flight sim fans top 3 best MSFS games of all time in 2025.
Even by today's standards, the graphics are amazing. Plus the system requirements are minimal, so you don't need a powerful, expensive computer to run it. Also, the autopilot works exactly as it should, unlike in the newer version of this game by Asobo.
**Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Steam Edition** is one of those games that made you appreciate just how incredible a simulator could be. ✈️🌍 There was something special about starting a flight, choosing your aircraft and destination, and simply enjoying the journey. From small propeller planes to massive airliners, every flight felt like its own adventure. The graphics may look dated today, but the atmosphere, realism, huge variety of aircraft, airports, and the incredible modding community gave FSX a personality that modern games still struggle to replicate. Whether you were seriously following procedures or just taking off and flying wherever you wanted, FSX gave you the freedom to create your own experience. And honestly, some of the best memories weren't even about landing perfectly—they were the long flights, exploring the world, discovering new aircraft, and spending hours just flying. **Old graphics. Endless possibilities. Unforgettable flights. ✈️❤️** **FSX — A classic that taught a generation to love flight simulation.**
Glad to find out that it runs in Proton now, no critical problems. With launch options: PROTON_USE_DXVK=1 WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3d10=n;d3d10_1=n" %command%
It is a game about flying planes. It does that. I only wish the achievements for finishing missions successfully weren't bugged in my version of the game.
it is realy good for old joysticks/yokes it runs super smoothly on a bad laptop i would highly recommend
FSX crashes too often. I will buy FS 2024.
I have severe vertrigo. Despite that i flew Air Creation 582-SL Trike Ultralight from Pau to Herrere Oloron airport using only topography clues (pretty accurate) and managed to find the small grass strip and land without crashing. now i feel like the red baron (still with severe vertrigo) . fully recommend
