Microsoft later confirmed this and stated they are committed to the Flight Simulator franchise, and expected to continue to release products in the series, but had nothing specific to announce at that time. On 22 January 2009, it was reported that development team behind the product was being heavily affected by Microsoft's ongoing job cuts, with indications that the entire Microsoft Flight Simulator team was being laid off. Microsoft Flight Simulator X has a required system rating of 3 for Windows Vista and a recommended rating of 5.

This also included mission-based gameplay with mission specific aircraft as well as an upgraded rendering engine capable of increased detail. Microsoft released screenshots as well as a list of frequently asked questions as a press release on Flight Simulator Insider, as well as numerous flight simulator communities (see External links).
