That in-and-of-itself has prolonged the life of the previous of the MS sim, and in cases, MS sims (plural). So I believe 2020 will have plenty of life, especially given today's prevailing GPU prices. AFAIK 2024 is going to be on the same generation of Xboxes that 2020 is on, so I can't see the PC requirements changing that much, unless they do a bunch of PC only graphical features.

I'll buy MSFS 2024 on release date, and will never use MSFS 2020 again. Yep, typical lifecycle of every sim since always.

They will at some point try to force people into 2024 as they did with Windows, but until then... So i might be a bit concerned devs might stop developing stuff which will work in the current iteration.

And i am not one of those who "resist", but things are so good nowadays that i will only move when i am probably "forced to" unlike i did with FS9 => FSX where it was actualyl a relief seeing such a major upgrade in graphics and therefore sim usability / much better experience. If something really nice comes up for the 2024 version and it doesn't support the current version, that will almost surely make me buy it.

May 29, 20242 yr 1. Buy on day 1 and keep both sims 2. Check if addons are working and perform some flights 3. Eventually forget MSFS until you decide to uninstall it to free up space for more addons I don't see a reason to delay step 1, unless you are really tight on money and want to wait for a sale.
