MultiScope Air Traffic Control is now available in Early Access for Linux on Steam.

The game is a realistic approach radar simulator where you guide aircraft safely onto the ILS using voice commands. It costs €19.99, with a launch offer of 15% off (€16.99) until November 14. Amsterdam Schiphol is included at launch, and Early Access is expected to last about 12 months.

MultiScope Air Traffic Control is a realistic approach radar simulator. Arrivals come in over the STARs, and departures climb out underneath them. Your goal is to turn, climb, descend or slow every aircraft into a safe stream onto the ILS, or hand it over to Area Control, without ever losing separation.

Hold push-to-talk and give your clearance the way you would on a real frequency: “KLM62P, turn left heading 210, descend to 2000 feet, QNH 1010, speed 180 knots, cleared ILS approach runway 18R.” The pilot reads it back and flies it.

Voice recognition runs on our own speech model, trained on ATC phraseology. It copes with long transmissions, accents, hesitations and different wording, in ICAO or FAA phrasing, and with corrections when you misspeak. The model runs offline on your graphics card or processor, and nothing you say leaves your PC.
