“Ray tracing especially shines on engine bays with their complex self-reflection,” Microsoft says. Microsoft says this will bring out the detail in car materials like anodised aluminium, carbon fibre and gold heat wrap. Microsoft says the Forza Motorsport release will benefit from real-time ray tracing visuals for the first time.
In a blog post, Microsoft added: “We also revealed Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit, a South African track making its Forza Motorsport debut, and the all-new Circuit Hakone set in Japan, an original, high-speed Grand Prix circuit built to showcase the technically advanced, state of the art immersion of the new Forza Motorsport.”Ī separate post from the Forza blog also showcases some of the cars depicted within the trailer, and we’d welcome any of them in our garage any day of the week. The Maple Valley track (below), which has been in the game since the 2005 original, is returning, along with the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps and the Laguna Seca Raceway. Microsoft says there’ll be plenty of fan favourite tracks and new locations making their debuts.
It’ll be an Xbox Game Pass title that will be available for Xbox Series S/X, PC and in the cloud on day one for subscribers.
Microsoft is only committing to a Spring 2023 release window, which suggests it should be here by this time next year. Forza Motorsport release date and availability
