Microsoft Flight Simulator was released just a little over a month ago and its developer, Asobo Studio, is already working on another project with Microsoft. Asobo Studio said in an interview with
La Tribune (as translated by
MadInfinite) that in addition to supporting Microsoft Flight Simulator for 10 years, it is working on two new projects: one is a partnership with Focus Home Interactive, the publisher behind 2019's
A Plague Tale: Innocence - another Asobo game. The other project is another collaboration with Microsoft. As far as what this continued partnership could mean, it's anybody's guess. Considering Microsoft Flight Simulator has a supposed 10-year tail to it, the two obviously aren't working on a sequel to the game anytime soon. A sequel to A Plague Tale: Innocence might seem like a good guess but Asobo Studio made that game with Focus Home Interactive so a sequel would likely come from that umbrella.

Rush: A Disney-Pixar Adventure and something tells us it's not that. Only time will tell for now. Microsoft Flight Simulator is just that — an airplane flight simulator — and it's received an
overwhelming amount of praise for its realism, due to its use of
Bing map data, and its
attention to detail. It's been an especially great game for those staying home due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic who still yearn for
a way to travel. It seems Microsoft is keen to continue this success with Asobo Studios as the two companies are already working on a new project together.
