Sim Update 5 Beta Now Available | Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024

Welcome to the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Sim Update 5 public beta test!

The Sim Update 05 Beta is now available on Steam, Windows PC, and Xbox.

The release notes for the first SU5 test build (1.7.6.0) can be found on our forums here.

Changes to Career/Challenge League in the Sim Update 5 Beta

Just like the recent Sim Update 4 Beta, Career and Challenge League will have separate progress and leaderboards from the live build.

This means Career mode progress in the live build will not carry over to the flighting build, and vice versa. In addition, Challenge League in the flighting build will have a separate leaderboard from the live build.

Making Career and Challenge League progress separate in the flighting build allows us to test additional changes and fixes that cannot be tested in the live build. All Career specializations will be unlocked by default in the flighting build to allow participants to preview changes that might not be available (based on Career mode progress) in the live build.

Will joining the Sim Update 5 Beta (and future Sim Update Betas) impact my progress in Career mode on the live build?

  • No, Career mode progress is locked to the live build. No Career progress made in the flighting build will carry over to the live build. However, all Career mode specializations are unlocked by default in the flighting build.

Will my leaderboard records in Challenge League transfer when the flighting build becomes the live build?

  • No, Challenge League leaderboards in the flighting build will always be separate from the live build.

Will progress in other game modes (Discovery, Free Flight, etc.) be separate in the flighting build and live build?

  • No, only progress in Career and Challenge League are affected. This could change in the future.

Will content I own or purchase in the Marketplace be available on both the flighting build and the live build?

  • Yes, all content owned or purchased in the live build or the flighting build will always be available in both builds.

Please find instructions to join the Sim Update 05 Beta below. You must own Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 (or have an appropriate Xbox Game Pass subscription) to participate on the platform of your choice.
