Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 is coming soon and while most players will probably be grabbing this 150GB behemoth of a game digitally, there is a physical edition available in Europe. Microsoft has partnered with Aerosoft to make this edition possible. If you're going this route however, be warned: you're going to be swapping several discs.
This physical edition of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 comes on 10 different discs. While many physical releases of games on PC take multiple DVDs, this is one of the highest we've ever seen. The physical edition of the game is going to start shipping around August 21, so if you do order it, don't expect it on launch day.
