Xbox Showcase 2023: 2 Massive Updates Enthralls the Racing World As Forza Motorsport Aims to Rule the Tracks This October

Xbox has finally revealed two massive Forza Motorsport updates, and yes, the game is coming out this year. 

After spending four years in the gaming markets, Xbox and Turn 10 studios pushed Forza Motorsport 7 into the vault. Apparently, the franchise had its reasons, and announced to discontinue the game on September 15, 2021. However, since the company had teased Forza Motorsport in late 2020, fans did not react much to the news back then.

But then, the community waited for years until Xbox decided to roll out an update for the upcoming racing title. They stayed quiet until Summer Game Fest 2023, where Xbox announced not only an official release date but also a massive partnership with an automobile company.

On July 11, 2023, Xbox finally rolled out an official release date for Forza Motorsport. Amidst the Xbox Showcase 2023, they featured the gameplay trailer along with some massive news. First, the company promised an October 10, 2023, release date. Followed by that, the trailer also claimed a fresh partnership with GM Motors.

To talk about a few, Turn 10 studios claimed new accessibility controls and car upgrades, but mainly the minute changes, allowing you to grab the last-minute win. However, the new Forza Motorsport added a mind-boggling update, calling out the blindsided. Interestingly, the devs added a blind driving assist, a setting that would allow visually impaired players to enjoy the game. 

After all, the driving assist would add special sound effects, allowing the lot to have an immersive experience. And if you ask us, who doesn’t like it? As of now, Forza Motorsport is yet to reveal more details about the feature, but with this addition, it stands as a groundbreaking upgrade.
