Forza Motorsport is coming back with a launch in the spring of 2023, Microsoft announced today.
Chris Sasaki, creative director of Turn 10 Studios, and Dan Greenawalt, general manager of Motorsport, showed off the long-running racing game series in its latest form. It will have real-time ray tracing and is the most “technically advanced racing game ever made,” Greenawalt said.
They started showing off Maple Valley, a track that can be raced at any time of the day. They showed uncut gameplay for the title, which is coming in the spring of 2023. It has a 48-times improvement in the quality of the physics simulation. Everything you see is new, Sasaki said. You can see fall colors, grass, rocks, skies and clouds, with a “generational leap” in beauty and detail, he said.
It has dynamic time of day that is new, like weather, available as a simulation on every track. You can see new details in the directionality of damage, dirt buildup, and other details. Ray tracing makes everything feel more connected, Greenawalt said.
