Forza Motorsport will introduce a total of 500 cars to its garages upon launch, with a hundred of them being new to the Forza Motorsport series. While some of these newcomers might have made appearances in Forza Horizon, the racing simulation enthusiasts can look forward to experiencing them for the first time in Forza Motorsport. The developers have placed great emphasis on customization, offering “800 unique upgrades” across the available cars. In the game’s trailer, the Corvette E-Ray is shown undergoing various performance modifications to compete with a Chevy Camaro in a race.
Players can expect a visually stunning experience, as Forza Motorsport will run at 4K resolution with ray-tracing enabled, ensuring breathtaking graphics during races. The game will maintain a smooth gameplay experience, operating at 60 frames per second. While the exact number of track layouts was not disclosed, Forza Motorsport will feature 20 locations, including five new additions such as the Kyalami race track in South Africa. These locations are expected to offer multiple course configurations, adding variety to the racing experience.
Turn 10 Studios has made significant upgrades to every aspect of the game, including the physics system, sound effects, graphics, and even the dirt and damage systems. They have gone to great lengths to simulate realistic paint thickness, chipping, and directionality of damage. Furthermore, dirt will accumulate realistically in low-pressure areas like recesses and alcoves. Real-time weather and time of day effects are also implemented, with each track being influenced by different temperatures, moisture, and rubber build-up. Additionally, the clouds in the game are procedurally generated, adding to the immersive environment. Notably, Turn 10 Studios has included an accessibility mode designed specifically for blind and low-vision players, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the game.
Players eager to get their hands on Forza Motorsport can now pre-order the game, and it will be available for download on the Xbox Game Pass on the day of its launch. This highly anticipated release promises to deliver an exceptional racing simulation experience with a wide range of cars, stunning visuals, dynamic weather, and enhanced gameplay mechanics, all tailored to meet the expectations of racing game enthusiasts.
