Dear Passengers is a cooperative flight crew sim from FLEXUS, planned for a 2026 release on PC via Steam. The game has surpassed two million wishlists, following a rapid rise and controversy over a character name and similarities to a Roblox game.
Dear Passengers is a physics-based cooperative game from FLEXUS that casts players as the crew of the world's worst airline. The Steam store page opened in July 2026, confirming the premise: up to four players join online, with one piloting and the rest managing the cabin. The plane is prone to disaster, and both cargo and passengers are difficult to handle. The game supports only English and is planned for release in 2026 on PC.
The game drew attention quickly. Within two days of its reveal, it reached one million Steam wishlists. That milestone came amid criticism over a character named Epst.J, widely seen as a reference to Jeffrey Epstein, and over similarities to a Roblox game. The original Roblox developer said the similarity was okay.
By August 1, FLEXUS announced that Dear Passengers had surpassed two million Steam wishlist registrations. The game's premise includes loading illegal cargo such as crocodiles and missiles. The two million mark, reached after the earlier controversy, points to strong pre-release demand for the cooperative title ahead of its 2026 launch.
