Forza Motorsport has 20 track locations at launch, and while that number is a decent amount on day one, we already have more courses confirmed to be releasing in 2023 and beyond.
First off, Yas Marina is arriving as a completely new Forza Motorsport location in November 2023. We don't have an exact date just yet, but the game's creative director confirmed this post-launch addition last month.
Not long after the arrival of Yas Marina, Nürburgring's famous Nordschleife course will be coming to the game in Spring 2024. Again, there's no exact date for this one right now, but the track racing mainstay is arriving early next year.
The team at Turn 10 Studios sees Forza Motorsport an ongoing, evolving platform - so expect to hear about other post-launch tracks in the coming weeks and months. For now, we can look forward to both Yas Marina and Nürburgring Nordschleife sooner than you might have thought!
Which of these are you looking forward to racing on most? Let us know in the comments below.

I wish they'd focus more on every day cars, instead of all these exotics they seem to be prioritizing.
Give me a Golf Mk3 with a 2.0 and an 020 trans mission. Or even something like a Ford Probe.
Oh good, Nordschleife. It's been 13 whole seconds since I played a game with that in it.
Spring 2024 isn’t exactly close. So that could be a 4-5month gap between.
So I hope they do monthly updates like GT does. As first impression are good for FM
Also pointing out the potential close to half a year gap between November and "Spring" 24. Turn 10 definitely need to bring more content than that regularly or this could be a Halo Infinite situation.
@pip_muzz could see that happening yeah
@Markatron84 It is one of the best tracks IMO. I was very disappointed it wasn't there at launch.
"Forza Motorsport has 20 track locations at launch, and while that number is a decent amount on day one, we already have more courses confirmed to be releasing in 2023 and beyond."
Come on now, 20 locations is anything but decent. I'm doing career mode and I'm already tired of VIR and Watkins Glen appearing in most championships. A decent amount would've been 30+ locations.
Forza is code for GAAS
@Gabrielmpf I said in my review that I believe 20 locations, some with multiple layouts, is OK for launch.
The problem is there are a handful of these tracks that feel very similar to drive on / look at, and we could have done with some more Forza original tracks or classics like Nordschleife. Hopefully it'll feel better once they've added a few more
@Kezelpaso Fair enough. Let's see how frequently they add new tracks. If it's anything like GT7, we're in for a long wait before it gets better. Hopefully they'll learn something from their competitor.
@Kezelpaso Are they new tracks going be free or paid DLC? I wouldn’t be surprised if it was the latter.
I’ve not been impressed with the game overall, especially graphically. It looks washed out as if the brightness is cranked up to max, FM7 honestly looks better.
@MaccaMUFC My understanding is that tracks will be free, and then you have the Car Pass etc. as paid content.
I don't think they can get away with paid tracks when they're free on GT7!
Spring 2024 isn't soon. Guess contents going to be sparse if that's the case for something they were teasing well ahead of launch. Can pretty much give up hope of seeing anything actually interesting. By the time they finish adding stuff that was already in previous games it'll be a year or more.
Honestly, I just hope they overhaul the progression system... it's so grindy that it really takes the wind out of the sails of a game that plays so beautifully on the track.
Adding some events in the Builder's Cup that use actual race cars would be nice as well.
@BBB That's a fair point. It is fun as hell to drive on though.
