Forza Motorsport 8 release date :
Forza Motorsport 8 was first announced in July 2020, and has been widely thought to be a next-gen exclusive title when it finally arrives. However, at this time no release date has been set.
The Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase provide the first look at the next Forza Motorsport but Henderson says it’s “Slated for Spring 2023 last I heard.”

Developer Turn 10 didn’t reveal much about Forza Motorsport 8 yet, though they did say it will be a return to the roots of the franchise They also revealed Forza Motorsport 8 features the biggest under-the-hood upgrade to the simulation engine yet. Creative director Chris Esaki said:
I’ve been kind of trying to think about how to how to quantify this for for everyone here without actually getting your hands on it, so to put the physics work into perspective, the changes we’ve made from Forza Motorsport 7 till now are more than the changes that we’ve made from Forza Motorsport 4 through 7. It’s basically a huge generational leap coming to the game.
From the very first Forza Motorsport till Forza Motorsport 7, our tire collision model itself had a single point of contact with the track surface and moved at about and refreshed at 60 cycles a second or 60 hertz. Our new model, this hopefully will give you an idea of how much has changed, has eight points of contact with the track surface and is running at 360 cycles a second or 360 hertz. If you’re doing the math there, eight points of contact versus one, 360 hertz versus 60, it’s a 48x fidelity jump in a single tire collision itself. There’s just a huge amount of work that has really paid off for us. All the feedback that we got from this last play test is that you can really feel the track surface a lot more and how the cars handle, there’s just a lot more communication to the player and the feeling of the tires on the track is really insane, it makes you more informed.
