About
Since 1995, X-Plane has been at the forefront of flight simulation, continually pushing the boundaries of realism and immersion. X-Plane 12 carries this legacy forward, offering a state-of-the-art simulator that combines real-world physics, unprecedented systems depth, and a true-to-life simulation of the world. Whether you're an aspiring pilot, an aviation enthusiast, or simply seeking an unmatched flying experience, X-Plane 12 is the go-to platform for any aviation fan.
X-Plane 12 takes immersion to new heights with its dramatically improved volumetric clouds and real live weather system. The new volumetric clouds create stunning, dynamic skies that evolve with the weather. Paired with our revamped live weather feature, which updates conditions in real-time based on global meteorological data, every flight feels truly authentic.
X-Plane 12 introduces a new lighting model that transforms the visual experience. With photometric lighting, every surface is rendered with real light intensities, capturing the subtleties of natural light across different times of day and weather conditions. The addition of bloom effects further enhances realism, creating stunning visuals and making every moment feel more vibrant and authentic.
X-Plane 12 redefines environmental realism with its enhanced scenery features. The world comes to life with new 3D trees that sway in the wind, realistic 3D water that reacts naturally to weather, and updated autogen that brings cities and landscapes to vivid detail. Airports are more immersive than ever with fresh textures, moving boats, and over 20,000 3D airports sourced from the X-Plane Gateway, each with unique, community-driven enhancements. Whether flying low over dense forests or landing at a bustling airport, X-Plane 12's scenery creates an unparalleled sense of place and realism.

Очень крутая игра, но нужны моды, чтобы красиво выглядела
она ахуительная
Outstanding aircraft simulator, very realistic. 20 something aircraft to choose from, more can be downloaded for free / payed for. Very good training missions to teach you how to fly. Works well on my M1 Macbook Pro. This is a simulator, no career modes or creating companies like MSFS (although wouldn't that be a great addition, I believe there are 3rd party add-ons for that, but nothing great).

Melhor jogo de SIM !!
体验感好
I've been flying in X-Plane almost every day for the past eight years, and it remains my favorite flight simulator. I enjoy both VFR and IFR flying, and it keeps me coming back thanks to its depth, continuous improvements, and the overall experience. The 12.4.3 update is a fantastic step forward. The VR experience has improved noticeably, with smoother interactions and a much more polished interface. Flying in my Quest 3 feels better than ever, making long flights even more immersive. Another reason I keep coming back is the incredible community. There are countless excellent payware and freeware add-ons. Also it's great to see Laminar Research continuing to improve the simulator update after update. Few games I've owned for this long have received this level of ongoing support, and every major release gives me another reason to get back in the cockpit.
Perfeito...
