Forza Motorsport 2023 Details: 500 Cars, 20 Locations


Today's Forza Monthly gave the info sim racing fans have been hoping for for months. Finally, here are some more updates on the new Forza Motorsport.

Forza Motorsport creative director Chris Esaki came on the monthly show to explain the previously released trailer at Xbox Direct.

If you haven't seen the trailer yet, here's it for you to see:


500 cars will be featured in the game, over 100 of which are "new to (Forza) Motorsport". Forza Motorsport is said to be launched with more modern racing cars than ever as well.

Some new cars include:
  • 2021 Cadillac Whelen Racing DPi
  • 2019 Ginetta LMP1
  • 2021 Porsche Mission R
20 locations will be featured at launch in FM2023. 5 of which are completely new to the Forza franchise. The track set includes Maple Valley, Suzuka, Kyalami and Laguna Seca. Laguna Seca also receives a historic layout from the 60s, which skips the first sector, going straight from the Andretti hairpin to turn 5.

Going further, physics details were mentioned like has been known previously. It boils down to the physics that has been reworked from the ground up, increasing the depth.

Lastly, the AI has also been completely rebuilt, with more news on that to come up later.

What also has to be mentioned is that the launch date has shifted from "Spring 2023" to now being "2023" only. But as a smart person once said: "A late game is only late until it ships. A bad game is bad for the rest of your life."

As a kid i would have wet pants by hearing about simulated paint chips, dirt accumulation, paint model etc.. but experience taught me that i should lower the expectations as low as possible in all segments of the game.
