The game will focus on improvements to the underlying Forza engine and the new Forza gameplay. At the Xbox Games Showcase in July 2020, a reboot of Forza Motorsport 8 was unveiled that is still in the early stages of development and has no official date yet. Now, on the eve of the release of Forza Horizon 4, Playground Games, the upcoming project, has shaken up the timetable and said goodbye to the series “two-year turnaround. The latest episode in the Forza Monthly series will be coming today, Thursday June 16, and it stands to be a bumper show. With this release, Turn 10 Studios resigned its typical two-year development cycle and decided to overhaul the Forzatech engine with improvements that would allow it to launch a next-generation racing game. However, all-terrain vehicles and off-road vehicles are to play a central role in the rally and road racing in the game series. The series tries to imitate the performance and driving characteristics of many real productions and modified racing cars. The Forza series is divided into two sequential titles: the original Forza Motorsport series, developed by the American developer Turn 10 Studios, focusing on professional track racing events on a range of real and fictional tracks, and the Forza Horizon series, developed by the British developer Playground Games, which revolves around a fictitious racing and music festival called the Horizon Festival, which offers an open world environment set in a fictitious representation of a real-world where players can roam and participate in racing events. Initially, the studio confirmed that Forza Motorsport would launch in Spring 2023. The game was given a Spring 2023 release window in late 2022, but the latest sighting of Forza Motorsport backtracks on this. Regular fans of the popular racing game will know that the series has split its new title into two different types of motorsport collections, with an emphasis on track racing and Horizon, which offers more Sandbox and open-world experience. Announced 'in early stages of development' in July 2020, all eyes have been on 2023 for Forza Motorsport. This will be available on all circuits, as opposed to the select circuits in Gran Turismo 7.Forza Motorsport is one of the most anticipated titles in the racing genre due to its realism, features, and wide range of vehicles. Then you have the changing time of day and weather effects that affect ambient air temperatures, track surface temps and the amount of grip you have – as will the track rubbering in through the race. There’s also extensive changes to how the game handles physics, track evolution, tyre modelling, with the far greater CPU power of the new generation consoles allowing for massively increase the amount of fidelity and accuracy of the model – it’s 48x more detailed than FM7. These have been captured with laser scanning. Turn10 have gone in-depth on the paints for the cars, using a spectrophotometer to capture more accurately how light works between different types of shiny paint… which you can then scuff up and batter through the racing combat! There’s also 20 “environments” with five brand new locations for the series, including Kyalami in South Africa. There will be over 500 cars in the game – 100 of which are new to Forza Motorsport – and with over 800 upgrades available for the cars. Ditching the Xbox One general and focussing solely on Xbox Series X|S and PC, the rendering engine has been updated to handle dynamic time of day and weather, there’s photogrammetry to capture real textures and bring them into the game world, and real time ray tracing that will also run while you’re driving around in 4K and 60fps – this, in contrast to Gran Turismo 7 and Forza Horizon 5 which only have ray tracing in photo modes. Getting another look at this game shows off just how far Turn10 are able to push Xbox’s premier racing game series on the latest consoles and PC.
