Thanks to an online rating board leak, fans may now know that the beloved Microsoft Flight Simulator is soon headed to the Xbox One.

Microsoft Flight Simulator looks to be finally coming to Xbox consoles, at least according to a recent leak and rating board listing. Microsoft Flight Simulator is currently sitting strong on PC, and fans are eagerly waiting for the game to come to consoles as well; that wait may not be much longer.

Microsoft Flight Simulator has a score of 91 on Metacritic for PC, so it is not a surprise to learn that Xbox console players are interested in the game as well. Ratings board listings are often a tell for if a game is on the way. Recently XCOM: Chimera Squad appeared online, for example, which excited many fans of the series.

According to a recent Reddit post and a rating board listing on Video Standards Council (VSC), the Xbox One version of Microsoft Flight Simulator has been rated as PEGI 3. Interestingly, the Xbox Series X version is not noted. Especially with the game being rather heavy on the graphics, one would think that the emphasis would be on the next-gen console. The game is indeed confirmed for the Xbox Series X, but this rating makes it appear that the game is coming to Xbox One as well.

One interesting thing to note about the PC version of the game is that plenty of mods are added to Microsoft Flight Simulator, something that console versions of games usually do not see. So it would be intriguing to see how Xbox would handle that. For now, fans will have to wait for an official confirmation from Xbox on when Microsoft Flight Simulator is coming to consoles, but it seems like it could be a solid summer title.

Microsoft Flight Simulator is available now on PC and is planned for release on Xbox Series X|S in 2021, and an Xbox One version is rumored.
