As the high launch of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 approaches on November 19th, gamers and aviation enthusiasts alike are buzzing with excitement. In a notable move, the Microsoft Flight Simulator Team has spotlighted Turtle Beach, a premier gaming accessories brand, as a critical partner in this journey. Let’s dive into what makes this partnership significant and how you can elevate your flight simulation experience!
Back in 2019, Turtle Beach’s then-CEO, Juergen Stark, had a fortuitous encounter during a visit to Microsoft. There, he got an early look at the impressive potential of the upcoming Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020). As a passionate flight simulator himself, Stark saw the opportunity to create tailor-made accessories for flight simulation. This led to the recruitment of simulation accessories expert Andrew Young, who has since spearheaded Turtle Beach’s foray into this niche market.
Turtle Beach has rolled out an impressive simulation accessories lineup catering to flight enthusiasts. Here’s a quick overview of what you can expect:
