A survey report conducted by Navigraph released about a week ago said that Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 continues to be the most popular choice among flightsimmers in 2025 so far.

Although its successor, the MSFS 2024, still comes to second which reflects a notable migration to the new version, the actual percentage of respondents saying that they have migrated to MSFS 2024 is less than half of those who reported the older MSFS 2020 is still their go-to simulator.

I am not surprised about the result since many of my friends and I agreed that the MSFS 2024 is a “crippled” immature product full of bugs and incompatibilities, even though it does brings many advancements and enhancements to the current and future flight simulation platform.

You can find Navigraph’s full report here.

Also, Flightsim.to has further interpreted the report with many supportive facts.
