With the release of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 on August 18th 2020, you may be wondering whether your low spec PC can run MSF2020. or how well Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 runs on minimum requirements. In this video, I show you the kind of game play experience you can expect to encounter with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 if your PC is at or near the minimum requirements. You will be pleasantly surprised. To skip forward to the game play part of the video, to witness for yourself the gaming experience you can expect head over to: 16:42 Cessna - Night Time Gatwick Airport & 23:11 Berlin Tegel Airport - Airbus A320 Neo.
