Microsoft Flight Simulator’s Top Gun expansion has been dated
Xbox has announced that Microsoft Flight Simulator’s free Top Gun expansion will be released on May 25.
The release date was confirmed on Monday alongside the launch of a new promotional website inviting players to create their own “call sign”.
The Top Gun expansion was announced last June during the Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase 2021.
It was originally scheduled to launch late last year, but it was pushed back when Paramount Pictures delayed the Top Gun: Maverick release date to May 27.
According to Microsoft, the Top Gun: Maverick expansion will let players “experience first-hand what it’s like to be a U.S. Navy Top Gun”.
