Forza Motorsport's grand reveal remains our top pick from Xbox's big showcase this past weekend. Developer Turn 10 has been toiling away on this one for almost five years, and well, it really shows, looking at the game's first gameplay showcase.
It shows even more though, when you compare it to the previous release: Forza Motorsport 7. FM7 was no slouch; it was a real looker on Xbox One X and PC with maxed out settings. However, the contrast from Forza 7 to the new Forza Motorsport, is stark.
Trackside detail is hugely amped up, along with huge leaps in general visual fidelity and car model clarity. It's all on show in the above video, where Forza 7 maxed out on PC goes up against Forza Motorsport's demo at the recent Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase.
All in all, Turn 10's upcoming racer is looking mighty fine indeed, and we can't wait to go hands on in spring 2023. We just hope that the leap in physics and gameplay feel match what we've seen so far with the visual overhaul. We're keeping the faith!
Are you looking forward to Forza Motorsport next year? Let us know down in the comments.

The game is most definitely a looker! Roll on Spring.
The development and coding in this new Forza do look phenomenal.
It definitely looks like the extra couple years of development was put to good use.
I could tell it was an XSS/X game from the start. Looks gorgeous.
When they started to show Forza Motorsports I was thinking, "OK this will be a simple incremental leap". By the time they were done I was thinking, "Wow, they could do that much to change racing simulators?". Can't wait to play it.
If they can get this running at 60fps with in race ray tracing, it’ll be unbelievable.
GT7 is the reason I got a PS5. And Forza Motorsport is the reason I got a Series X. This looks actually nextgen which GT7 did not. I hope it’s good bc Forza Motorsport hasn’t been at its best since 4. Please be good please be good!
Definite highlight of the showcase for me, looking and sounding absolutely superb. There are others I'm looking forward to but the majority of the other games were pretty dull for me. Glad they are on GP so I can try them and prove me wrong though!
Fortunate to own a PS5 as well as an X and disagree that GT7 doesn't look 'nextgen' (it certainly feels it with haptics), but this is definitely upping the game!
"Oneza, twoza, threeza, Forza" WOWZAH!!
Forza horizon 5 was my first entry into the horizon series, and now it looks like forza motorsport(8?) will be my first racing sim since gt2 on the ps2.
The King of Simulator Racing Game 💚❤ I played Every Forza Games 💚💚
Series X is my first ever Xbox so never played Forza MS. Love Forza Horizon 5. I’m guessing Forza MS is more like Gran Turismo being more realistic than Horizon. This does look incredible! Love Gran Turismo 7. Will be interesting to see if this is as good or better.
