VR Will be in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 on Day 1, Pimax Crystal Light Used at Global Preview Event

Virtual Reality was added to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 a few months after its release, thanks to the community pleading with the developers to include it. Virtual Reality helped make the simulator much more immersive for simmers and it has now become a staple in how many use their home set-ups. Therefore, it's great to see Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 launch day 1 with VR support.
During the Global Preview Event of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, a handful of VR set-ups were made available to indivudals to try out. The headset of choice for the event was Pimax's Crystal Light, which features high resolution displays and good refresh rates to ensure that you get a quality visual experience.
Our friend theVRpilot used the headset during the trip and gave his hands-on (face-on?) impressions of the new simulator when using VR. Considering that 10-15% of people who use MSFS are using VR, there is a big audience out there looking to learn more about how VR is handled in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
A number of other outlets and creators also got their chance to try out VR for the new simulator and gave their own impressions. Another YouTuber, Polman, tried the Pimax Crystal Light as well, saying "If MSFS2020 looked good, just wait until you see MSFS2024. You will be absolutely amazed by the graphic quality."
It seems that VR has been refined for the new simulator, which is super important considering the level of detail we're going to see now in the ground and airports. You can see how much more detailed compared to Microsoft Flight Simualtor 2020 in our comparsion article.
