PMDG has issued a new update to their 777 lineup for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024, as mentioned in their previous development update from a few days ago. Furthermore, they have also confirmed the release of their 777-200LR for later today.

Build 116 is now available for the 777-300ER, 777F, and 777-200ER via their operations center and marketplace (MSFS 2020 only for now), while the lineup should arrive in 2024's marketplace later today (or show up for people who already own the 2020 version).

PMDG also clarifies that the 777 lineup for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is not exactly the same as that of the 2020 version. They have been built using the new SDK and underwent thousands of changes to ensure stability and performance.

With the 777 workload easing off, PMDG will now focus on the 737NG for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. A short video of the cockpit door being operated will come soon.

The DC-6, on the other hand, is still depending on an Asobo fix, as it has suffered from an LOD issue since the advent of SU 3.

‍

The 747's development team has gained new hands since the 777 folks are now free, meaning the process might speed up significantly from now on. Both 741 and 744 are in active development, and it's a "close horse race" to see which one will be released first.

‍

The 777-200LR, the last of the 777 variants promised by PMDG, will be released later today. In Randazzo's words, it is the "true long-haul monster of the family." The marketplace release will follow sometime in August.

PMDG's product lineup is available on their website, with prices ranging from $34.99 to roughly $78.
