Today they made an announcement via press release that will certainly send ripples through the add-on market.

Aerosoft and Orbx announced a distribution partnership that will see them sell each other’s products on the respective digital platforms.

Things will start relatively slowly with fifteen products from each company appearing in both Orbx Direct and Aerosoft’s own store, and more will be added with time.

Below you can read a comment from Orbx CEO Anna Cicognani, whom we interviewed quite recently.

“We are very excited to start this partnership with Aerosoft.

Orbx has been developing high-quality products for the major flight sim platforms for many years, and we are proud our two Companies – which share a lot of history – can offer flight simmers some of the best products from our respective catalogues.

We also got a comment from Aerosoft CEO Winfried Diekmann:

“A great partnership – both Aerosoft and Orbx are very well known brands in the flight simulation industry, and both care greatly about high quality and customer satisfaction. Together we can offer our respective customers a great variety of interesting products.”

At the moment, we don’t yet know which products from either developer will kick off the partnership.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
