There's news about Forza Motorsport, the ultimate racing simulation! Microsoft recently announced the release date for Forza Motorsport 8, revealing some details about the racetracks and vehicle choices in the sim. Microsoft will probably give the starting signal on the 10. October 2023. At this point, Forza Motorsport will be available on the Microsoft Store, Steam, Game Pass and Cloud Gaming. At the beginning, the racing game shows 20 "completely redesigned" tracks in different layouts. According to a statement, five of them have never been passable in a video game. Each route can be used around the clock, with the time and weather changing dynamically. And this is by no means just a gadget, since, according to developer Turn 10, the track's grip varies depending on the temperature and tire wear on the asphalt.

More than 500 vehicles from various categories and time periods are available. Various types of vehicles are represented in this collection, including sports prototypes, hypercars, GT cars, muscle cars and classic racing cars. These can be improved with "over 800 performance upgrades," according to Microsoft. The integrated AI should also be optimized and the single-player campaign revised. Turn 10 would like to reveal what the individual players can expect in concrete terms on June 13th in a separate presentation.
Three versions from 70 to 100 EUR
Forza Motorsport will be available in three versions. The premium version for around 100 EUR includes the main game and the Car Pass with 30 additional cars that will be released over a period of 30 weeks. And another vehicle pack with eight racers, a "VIP Membership" that doubles the income in game currency (so saves grinding), five exclusive vehicles and skins are also included. In addition, a starter package is part of the bundle. This immediately unlocks five cars and offers bonus credits as starting support for career mode. In addition, buyers of the premium edition have the opportunity to play exclusively with each other in the first five days after publication.
Those who purchase the standard version for EUR 70 or the deluxe edition for EUR 90, which combines the main game and the Car Pass, will have to wait until October 10th. The pricing structure and the additional content clearly show which version Microsoft considers the actual standard variant: pay or grind, the descriptions again suggest. The fact that a new car is released every week is no coincidence, but a further step in establishing Forza as a service game with a solid, consistent player base. Other elements of the strategy are new championships, online events and courses, which should continuously motivate the return to the game.
