Developed by RealFlight, the new add-ons will be released over the course of the next two years. The first of this content will be a Grumman F6F Hellcat expansion, which will be available on March 27 for 19.99 Euros (roughly $25). It can already be bought as a digital download directly from RealFlight.

Microsoft recently closed the ACES development team, raising questions about the future of the Flight Simulator series. The company, however, has assured fans that it is still fully committed to the franchise.
