Q: What is the release date?
A: 2025 is as precise as we are willing to be at the moment. We will refine that date once we get closer to release.
Q: What platforms are you releasing SimplePlanes 2 for?
A: Steam is planned for 2025 with support for Windows and macOS. Next we plan to tackle iOS and Android. After that, we will continue to evaluate any other platforms that make sense. Console and Quest are certainly in the realm of possibility.
Q: Are there SimplePlanes 1 builds in the SimplePlanes 2 trailer?
A: Yes! SP2 will be backwards compatible so players can fly their old SP1 crafts in SP2. There are so many great crafts that players have made over the years that we wanted to make sure they can experience them in SP2 with better visuals, new environments, and multiplayer. We also upgraded the crafts in the trailer with some of the new enhancements in SP2 such as new curvy wings, procedural jet engines, aircraft textures, etc.
Q: Will it be localized?
A: Yes, localization is planned to make SimplePlanes 2 accessible to a global audience.
Q: Will it support VR?
A: We do plan to support VR, because we love flying your crafts in VR, but this may not make the initial release.
Q: Will it have part X/Y/Z or feature A/B/C?
A: We are focused on our own internal roadmap right now and we will be somewhat quiet over the next few months. As we get further into development we will become more collaborative with the community to see what features are important to them. And of course after release we will continue to incorporate player feedback as we have done with our previous games Juno: New Origins and SimplePlanes 1.
Q: Can I be a beta tester?
A: We will announce beta testing opportunities closer to the release date. Interested players will be able to sign up via a registration form, and participants will likely be selected on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Q: What will happen to SimplePlanes 1 when SimplePlanes 2 is released?
A: SimplePlanes 1 will continue to be supported with approximately one maintenance update per year. Players will still be able to upload and download crafts from SimplePlanes.com. However, crafts created in SimplePlanes 2 will not be compatible with SimplePlanes 1.
Q: What will happen to SimplePlanes.com when SimplePlanes 2 comes out?
A: SimplePlanes.com will continue to serve the community as it does now, and we will expand its capabilities to support uploads from SimplePlanes 2. As we shift our focus to developing SimplePlanes 2, expect to see enhancements to the website. These updates will aim to improve user experience and functionality, ensuring the site remains a vibrant hub for both SimplePlanes and SimplePlanes 2 players.
Q: This is exciting, what do I do?
A: Join the excitement by wishlisting SimplePlanes 2 on Steam!
Stay tuned for more updates and engage with our community to be part of the journey toward release.
Are mods backwards compatible?
Will we get nuclear bombs and missiles?
It is nice to hear that it will be backwards compatible!
And subscribe
Check my videos in my YouTube channel it says adlyelwan and the second name is morefutureyoutubers pls react to,we will still support you simpleplanes,
And i have the next release date for simpleplanes 3 (might) so simpleplanes created 9 years ago right and now in 2025 it will come sp 2 and in my opinion if sp 2 9 years old is then it need 1 year after the release from simpleplanes 3 so i mean 2035 but lets hope it comes in 2025 and 2035 for simpleplanes 2 and simpleplanes 3
Has it a possibility that ios gets finally mods and have we the mods from simpleplanes to simpleplanes2?
I swear on my life, the first time I saw this, I thought I was being gaslit, but now, I CANNOT WAIT FOR RELEASE
Finally, after what felt and probably was 10 years, a new version. It felt like Juno took a lot of the attention, but now :)
@Madmaximus did I ever lay on an insult?
Will vapor/con trails be in the game? And if so will they be like those in real life or at least close to them like DCS/ a setting to turn them in and off?
@Graingy James planes
@Spacedoge12345plane elllo
@Madmaximus Who?
It's been some days since I've checked this.
@Nerfaddict ig but hopefully SP2 is better optimized
@Graingy bruh don't mess with our boy he a true vet
@RishantYT747fan there so easy to get again so probably no
@SimpleStudent idk but it would bee cool if certain seats in an aircraft could have different controls
@Madmaximus I know, but it takes literally hundreds of parts that consume loads of processing power
@Ashdenpaw1 probity not
@Nerfaddict you could just build one
@SimpleStupid wus good
Kinda wanna see cluster bomba added to the game
@WNP78 @jamesPLANESii I think keeping Funky Trees would be better than replacing it, or else many (or even all) SP1 builds with FT wouldn't work properly.
@WNP78 Will there be headlights that illuminate the surroundings? I think that would be a good idea to put in if you haven't yet. Also, because of SP2, I hope to enjoy these good times well into my 20s.
