by Rainier on March 5, 2007 @ 5:27 a.m. PST

The Flight Simulator X ACES team is not only working on a Service Pack #1 and the DirectX 10 update, but it is also developing Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline, the first expansion pack in years, adding new features, including multiplayer air racing, new missions, and all-new aircraft, including the legendary P-51 Mustang.

Developed by ACES Studio, this new expansion pack to the recent AIAS award-winning "Flight Simulator X" will allow gamers to race against each other in highly-detailed locations around the world. Aviators will also enjoy three new aircraft and be able to experience "Flight Simulator" with the most advanced graphics fidelity ever using Microsoft DirectX 10.

"Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline" will ship as a Games for Windows title and will deliver the same standard of excellence of "Flight Simulator X" and other great Games for Windows titles, including easier installation, improved reliability and support for key Windows Vista features such as the Game Explorer and Parental Controls.

Building on the rich visuals and amazing realism of our platform, ”Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline” will be available this holiday season for "Flight Simulator X" customers running either Windows XP or Windows Vista. In addition, as a Games for Windows title, “Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline” will include support for key Windows Vista features such as the Game Explorer and Parental Controls. For those customers with compatible hardware, “Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline” will take advantage of Windows Vista and DirectX 10 to deliver breathtaking graphics and dynamic environments for an even more immersive experience.

In the meantime, Service Pack 1 for “Flight Simulator X” is tentatively scheduled for an April release and will include a targeted set of performance and content enhancements to address the most common customer requests.

In addition, work continues on the DirectX 10 visual update for “Flight Simulator X”, which will be available as a free download around the launch of “Flight Simulator X: Adrenaline”.
