When is the Forza Motorsport 8 release date? Forza Motorsport, the next entry into the iconic racing game series from Turn 10, is on the way and there’s so much to look forward to – well if you’re a petrol-head anyway. This game is going to be much more focused on circuit racing than Forza Horizon games, which is what Forza fans have had to play over the last five years.
Forza Motorsport is going to be the eighth release in the Forza Motorsport series – and technically the 13th Forza game to be released by Turn 10. As you might imagine, you’ll be able to choose from a wide array of cars and race them against AI and other players on a wide array of tracks. Those of you with the latest Xbox will also want to check out the Forza Motorsport Xbox Series X|S resolution and framerate so you know how it will play when it rolls around.
Forza Motorsport 8 release date
The Forza Motorsport 8 release date is Tuesday, October 10, 2023 on Xbox Series X|S and PC. This was officially announced during the 2023 Xbox Showcase, but was previously reported by Exputer.
The game will be available upon release on Game Pass, but it isn’t coming to Xbox One, as it’s been built to harness the power of Microsoft’s current-gen console.
There’s going to be real-time ray-tracking and Dan Greenwalt has claimed that this is going to be “the most technically advanced racing game ever made.” So… Yeah, we’re looking forward to this one.
Forza Motorsport 8 gameplay
We’ve had several decent looks at Forza Motorsport gameplay ahead of launch, which all show off the game’s amazing graphics and realistic racing. There will also be over 500 Forza Motorsport cars at launch.
As well as single-player racing, there will also be plenty of Forza Motorsport multiplayer modes too. You can expect multiplayer and career modes that will take you through the game’s many different Forza Motorsport tracks and races. The developer has also collaborated with General Motors for a series of GM-themed competitions in-game.
Racing physics have seen a massive overhaul with this release. There is also a deep modification and tuning system, that will let you tinker with every aspect of your car’s set up.
In addition, the light will reflect off the track and the cars with support for 4K resolutions and ray-tracing on track, alongside 60fps gameplay on Xbox Series X. Bumps and scrapes as you race will also look far more realistic.
In addition to these gameplay enhancements, you can expect audio improvements, new weather dynamics, and systems, as well as a host of accessibility features for players. Xbox went into detail on those accessibility features for Forza Motorsport like blind driving assists in a recent video.
Well, that’s everything we know about the Forza Motorsport 8 release date which is finally almost pulling up to the finish line. While you wait, why not check out our guide to the best Xbox racing games here – or the best Xbox Game Pass games, if you want to save yourself for Forza, here.
