About the Game

Become an Air Traffic Controller! Manage arrival and departure traffic using your voice or by clicking on aircraft labels. Give realistic instructions, vector aircraft, assign altitudes and speeds, clear approaches, use transitions, and land aircraft safely at their destination!

Navigation Data and Airports

VoiceATC Simulator supports Navigraph AIRAC data. Players with an active Navigraph subscription can use updated real-world procedures, runways, fixes, NAVAIDs and airport configurations at airports around the world.

Players without a Navigraph subscription can still play using the legacy AIRAC data included with the simulator. This means the game remains fully playable without any external subscription, although the navigation data will not be updated to the current AIRAC cycle.

  • Updated AIRAC support through Navigraph

  • Real-world airports using real navigation data

  • Legacy AIRAC included for players without an external subscription

  • Real procedures, runways, fixes and NAVAIDs

Video Tutorials

A written manual and video tutorials are included with the game, covering essential topics such as user interface navigation, aviation fundamentals, and gameplay mechanics. These tutorials provide clear explanations and practical demonstrations to help you get started with the simulator.

Realism

VoiceATC Simulator is a simulator, so the learning curve can be steep. It is designed primarily to be played with your voice, using aviation phraseology and realistic procedures.

You can set the traffic count per hour and manage your sector by giving vectors, altitudes, speeds, transitions, directs to NAVAIDs, approach clearances and other typical air traffic control instructions.

Minimum sector altitudes are implemented. If an aircraft violates the minimum altitude for a sector, a low altitude alert will appear.

Traffic is generated using real routes, real airlines and realistic callsigns, aiming to provide a credible experience for aviation enthusiasts and players who want to learn the basics of air traffic control.

Modding

The game is modding using Github. The community can create and share custom sectors and additional content. Game files are designed to be understandable, so creating your own scenarios is an important part of the simulator's potential. The modding community is very helpful in the Discord server!

Early Access

VoiceATC Simulator is my first game and I push for high-quality standards. However, given the scope of the project and its Early Access status, occasional bugs and errors may still occur.

The simulator will continue receiving updates, realism improvements, new features and adjustments based on community feedback.
