Developers Asobo shared a little about the update in a post on the game’s site, while also noting a slight delay on its originally intended January 26th release. The update also came with a couple more screenshots, showing castles Blarney and Windsor.
These are interesting “points of interest”, but the highlight is surely going to be those mentioned new photogrammetry cities. Photogrammetry is the process by which Flight Simulator builds cities based on satellite imagery, creating accurate 3D models with a density that’s impractical to recreate by hand. Previous updates have introduced similar revamps to Japan and the United States with great results, but Flight Sim is at its best when you’re exploring places you’ve been in real life. We know one of the cities they’re revamping is London, so I’m assuming the other four are Glasgow, Edinburgh, Kirkcaldy and Hamilton.
