MK-Studios Release Dublin for MSFS and Provide a Roadmap

Multi-sim scenery developer, MK-Studios, has taken to their Facebook page to provide us with an extensive roadmap covering a numerous amount of sceneries in development for Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) and Prepar3D. X-Plane 11 was not mentioned on the roadmap provided by the developer.

Firstly, let’s start with the release of Dublin. MK-Studios have today released their first airport for MSFS with the release of Dublin (EIDW). Dublin is a major international airport and is located in the capital city of Ireland. The developer has stated that “We're doing our work properly, not just porting the scenery straight. In Dublin, for example, we modeled new jetways, updated taxiway layouts, stand names, and fixed a few small issues here and there. “ As well, a feature list was provided from the developer highlighting the work gone into the airport. The feature list is visible below:

  • Fully detailed rendition of Dublin airport,
  • Up to date ground layout and stands according to the real-world changes,
  • Terminal interior model (simplified for maximum performance,
  • AI compatible,
  • Optimized for high performance.

Now onto the roadmap, the developer has provided an update on 12 sceneries coming to simulators in 2021. The roadmap provided by Mateusz Stabryla (MK-Studios CEO) covers a vast number of airports that the team at MK-Studios has been working on and will continue to work on until their release. The roadmap doesn’t contain many specific details about the sceneries, though it does provide us with expected release dates for most of the airports, with most expected to release sometime in 2021.
