If you’re looking forward to exploring the world in full high definition without even leaving your house, you’re in luck, as registration for the technical alpha is officially open.

To sign up for the tech alpha, all you need to do is register for the game’s Insider Program. Registration has been open since June so, if you’re already signed up, you don’t need to do anything else. If you’re not registered, now is your time to shine!

If you’re already an Insider, head over to the Insider Area in order to check out the preview release of version #1.10DRR of the Development Roadmap. The team behind Microsoft Flight Simulator has added dates for October and, over the next few weeks, will be adding November deadlines too.

Microsoft’s gorgeous return to the Microsoft Flight Simulator franchise will be receiving its first technical alpha this September.

Announced just after the arrival of the game’s Insider Program, the upcoming technical alpha will allow testers to get their hands on a very early version of the game. While we don’t know how much of the Azure-powered will be playable, it’s comforting to know that the game will have extensive testing before release.

The new Insider Program will give a select few who signed up previews, roadmap updates and more. In fact, Microsoft has even released an in-depth development roadmap so that we can see certain milestones the title will hit before release.

Microsoft Flight Simulator will launch next year for Windows 10 PCs and Xbox One consoles.
