Remake and rebuy everything of course. Did you expect backwards compatibility? Where’s the money in that?
Edit: have a look at people in the game forums unable to have their community content (especially planes) not working in 2024, or only partially working (mismatched textures, missing liveries, flight model glitches). As of right now, there are lots of compatibility issues.
For any content you purchased outside of the simulator, the Community Folder will continue to work as it did in MSFS 2020. Any content in your MSFS 2020 Community Folder can simply be copied over to the new MSFS 2024 Community Folder, and the vast majority of that content should work in MSFS 2024.
For any content you purchased in the Marketplace in MSFS 2020, that content will show up as owned in the Content Manager (in MSFS 2024 called “My Library”) at launch for you to use in MSFS 2024, and the vast majority of that content should work in MSFS 2024. This availability does not require developers to sign off on their content.
Nope, just been keeping up with the MFS2024 forums, where tons of community content has issues rendering and systems not working. Technically being able to load content but not have it work the same way or in a usable manner doesn’t seem like real “backwards compatibility” but go ahead and take Microsoft’s word. We both know they’re good for it! 🤣
Is the content from the previous flight simulator compatible with 2024 or do people have to remake and rebuy everything again?
No it should carry over.

Except that’s not the case according to the Flight Simulator 2024 FAQ
Really shooting from the hip on this one, huh?
