X-Plane 11 is a flight simulator built around detailed aircraft and realistic operation. Its redesigned interface is intended to make setting up and editing a flight straightforward, while consistently usable three-dimensional cockpits and high-resolution exterior models give the included aircraft a strong visual focus.
The simulation’s systems and surroundings add practical texture to flying. Its aircraft have realistic avionics and are described as IFR-ready, while airports feature pushback tugs and roaming fuel trucks that can service both the player’s aircraft and AI planes. Lighting, sound and explosions are handled by an effects engine, and buildings and roads help represent European cities.
X-Plane 11 is listed as supporting single-player and multiplayer, with PvP and shared or split-screen PvP among its categories.
