February 2nd, 2026 MSFS Weekly Briefing
Weekly RecapA few months ago, we had a request for non-English speakers to assist with ATC language localizations. Thanks to the community’s assistance, we’ve improved ATC language quality for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and made changes to non-English languages in Sim Update 4. We’ve also resolved a handful of key issues based on your feedback. We are once again asking for more language localization assistance from players.
