Can't find Flight Simulator Premium Deluxe in Steam

To clarify, Microsoft Flight Simulator's latest edition has been renamed as the 40th Anniversary Edition in celebration of its 40th year. Consequently, if you go to the official website at https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/microsoft-flig..., it will display this as the current version.

Now, navigate to https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/microsoft-flig... to view all the available purchase options for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Scroll down until you find the Microsoft Flight Simulator Premium Deluxe 40th Anniversary Edition. Beneath the options, you will find it offered for XBOX, PC, and Steam. Choose the Steam version and click on the "BUY NOW" button. This will redirect you to the Steam website.

 

Can't find Flight Simulator Premium Deluxe in Steam

From a technical standpoint, it's essentially the sole edition with some updates; they merely rebranded it.

The Steam listing indicates the identical release date of August 18, 2020. The 40th Anniversary Edition is introduced as a free update for existing users, and for new purchasers, it appears under the name of the 40th anniversary edition from the outset.

You can see what updates they have on this website: https://www.flightsimulator.com/microsoft-fligh...

Is it worth it? Well, in my opinion, Flight Simulator is always worth it, hahaha. I genuinely enjoy the game and appreciate the realism it offers. The recent update, featuring the A310, has been particularly enjoyable; it's a fantastic aircraft. If you're unsure, you can check out some gameplay videos. I always find those entertaining, especially the ones that simulate realism with amusing ATC communications.
