Developer Drzewiecki Design launched its Tokyo Narita (RJAA) airport, and considering how much I miss flying to this gateway to Japan due to a certain pandemic, I couldn’t be happier, especially considering the that the developer’s well-known quality appears to be in full swing here.

It’s currently available on SimMarket for approximately $30 including applicable VAT and should likely launch on Orbx Central and other stores soon.

Below you can check out a large gallery of screenshots and a features list.

  • High-quality model of RJAA Narita airport in Tokyo, featuring the up-to-date version with extensive details throughout the whole airport
  • FPS-friendly design, with epic night textures, dynamic lighting, and PBR materials
  • Performance-friendly interior modeling of terminal buildings, control towers, and hangars, static aircraft, advanced night lighting, custom animations, custom mesh, custom orthophoto, custom animated jetways
  • A perfect addition to the World Update I: Japan

Speaking of Orbx’s partners, today the publisher announced another partnership via press release for its Orbx Central digital store that is becoming more and more content-rich.

Australia-focused developer AUScene launched two of its airports on the store: Ayers Rock Airport (YAYE) and Parafield Airport (YPPF) for $18 and $16 respectively.

A few of days ago, we published our massive interview with head of Microsoft Flight Simulator Jorg Neumann, who provided a lot of new info about the present and future of the sim.
