Although it was never announced as coming in 2022, many take Forza Motorsport for granted this year, but according to well-known insider Tom Henderson, this will not happen, with the new chapter of the Turn 10 series. which would instead be scheduled for 2023.
“I’m pretty sure we’ll see the announcement of the Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels DLC and a first look at the next Forza Motorsport, which is slated to arrive in the spring of 2023 based on what I’ve heard,” Henderson replied. he asked for possible information on the Forza series.
Having never seen the new Forza Motorsport in action (which would essentially be Forza Motorsport 8) beyond the first teaser trailer in the engine of 2020, the journalist/insider’s statement is quite plausible, also considering the credibility it has achieved at this point the character. Furthermore, the existence of a DLC on Hot Wheels for Forza Horizon 5 seems to have been confirmed directly by Steam.

However, this disappoints many players who, in some ways, we’re now convinced of the release of Forza Motorsport in the course of 2022, although this has never been suggested by official sources. The biggest problem, in fact, would be the actual lack of major first-party productions between now and the end of the year, unless surprises emerge during the Xbox & Bethesda Showcase, of course.
Turn 10’s processing of the new Forza Motorsport is taking a long time due to the evolution applied to the game’s core engine, ForzaTech, which should have been developed to make the most of next-generation hardware. According to what was previously reported, in fact, Forza Motorsport should be released exclusively on Xbox Series X | S and PC and not on Xbox One, even if a test build of the game on that platform seems to have been subjected to some tests anyway.
We will know more obviously during the Xbox & Bethesda Showcase scheduled for tomorrow, June 12, 2022, at 19:00.
