While the Forza series, one of the most popular productions of Xbox, challenges open world racing games with Horizon games, the Motorsport series competes fiercely with PlayStation’s Gran Turismo series. Gran Turismo was the winner of the Gran Turismo-Forza Motorsport competition in 2021, while in 2022, the Forza series surpassed Gran Turismo by a wide margin for the first time in a long time.
New statements were made today about the new game of the Forza Motorsport series, which was announced for the first time last year and not much information was given about it. It looks like Microsoft and Turn 10 studio are working hard to beat Gran Turismo again this year.
It will be much more realistic both in terms of driving feel and graphics.
Turn 10 Studios, which is the producer of all Forza games, claimed that Forza Motorsport will be the most technically detailed game ever made. Stating that more than 500 vehicles will be available, the team also stated that everything from the grass to the mirrors of the vehicles in the game is rendered in 4K 60FPS and all of these are supported by RTX.
The studio also stated that the sun rays falling on all vehicle paints in the game are measured with a spectrophotometer in the real world and this detailed data is transferred to the game exactly. Thanks to this method, which is used for the first time in the world, the sun’s rays will reflect on the vehicles just like in the real world. He also states that details such as the micron thickness of the paint, the way of painting and cleaning can be adjusted in vehicle paints, and that these details make each vehicle unique.
Of course, not all innovations are just car paint.
The team also states that they want the game to be as realistic as possible in terms of driving sensation. For this reason, each modification made on your vehicle in the game will affect both the performance and sound of the vehicle. In addition, it was announced that the factors that are important in the real racing world such as realistic tire wear, cold and hot performance of the engine will be added to this game.
It is also among the information conveyed that there will be 20 different racing environments in the game and 5 of them will be seen for the first time in Forza games. In addition to all these, the Forza Motorsport series will have details such as variable time and weather for the first time with this game. For example, in the old Forza Motorsport games, if the sun was at the top when you started a 100-lap daytime race, the sun was still high when you finished the race. Now you will be able to finish a race that you started at noon in the evening. With this feature, which is only available in open world games, the Forza series can gain a huge advantage against Gran Turismo.
However, unfortunately, the Turn 10 team stated that they need to work hard to present such a detailed game and gave a clue to the players that the game’s release may be delayed. Let’s see if the new Forza Motorsport will be a worthy competitor to Gran Turismo or will it remain an average game like Forza Motorsport 6?
