Hi everyone, I'm Chris Esaki,
and welcome to Turn 10 Studios.
The team is hard at work, bringing you
the next generation of Forza Motorsport,
built from the ground up to take advantage
of the Xbox Series consoles.
This is the most technically advanced
racing game ever made.
Today, I'm joined by some of our
amazing team members to show you
how we are making it look real,
sound real, and feel real.
This is Forza Motorsport.
At launch, Forza Motorsport
features over 500 cars for you
to collect, race, and customize,
with more than 800 unique upgrades.
This includes over 100 new-to-Motorsport
cars and the most modern race cars
we've ever featured on our roster.
Racing is violent.
It's a battle on the racetrack.
The advancements in our
physics model are greater than
Forza Motorsport 5, 6, and 7 combined.
This makes our driving experience
more fun and rewarding in the way
the car accelerates, corners, and brakes.
Our materials and shaders are
built from the ground up at
high resolutions and optimized
for a cutting-edge ray tracing experience.
Our paints are sourced using a
spectrophotometer to capture multiple
data points of light behavior on a surface.
This yields a paint model that has a
much more realistic light response across
color, metal flake, and gloss.
Damage and dirt buildup
is unique to each car.
It's now contextually aware
and more localized.
We simulate paint thickness,
chipping and directionality.
Dirt accumulation is more realistic,
gathering more in the low-pressure areas
like recesses and alcoves.
These innovations tell the story
of the work you put into a race,
and reflects the marks and
battle scars of motorsport.
This is our best-sounding
Forza Motorsport ever.
And the first to be mixed natively
for immersive audio formats like
Windows Sonic and Dolby Atmos.
To create an immersive soundscape,
each audio system has been
rebuilt from the ground up to
deliver a new level of sonic depth
and authenticity for our players.
Modifying car parts like your exhaust
and turbo change the car sounds
in Forza Motorsport,
just like it would in the real world.
Every car now has a variety of
sound possibilities based on
the parts you've installed.
Hardware-accelerated convolution reverb
accurately reproduces how sounds in Forza
interact within an acoustic space,
dynamically adapting to its
surroundings and creating a realistic
and detailed soundscape.
New features like our
regional track announcer system
and improved tire and suspension audio
bring a new level of realism to the game.
Hear Forza Motorsport like never before.
Every tire squeal. Every engine.
Lap after lap.
Forza Motorsport launches with
twenty environments built from
the ground up for this generation.
You'll get to race on iconic
fan favorites as well as five,
all new-to-Motorsport locations,
including our first in South Africa: Kyalami.
We capture our environments
to an incredible level of detail.
When we reference a track, our team
comes back with over three terabytes
of highly-detailed photogrammetry
and laser scanned data
Through the power of the Xbox Series consoles
we're able to use this data to
draw up to ten times more detail
than previous generations.
You'll see lush trees, dense grass,
and overgrowth vegetation.
Animated track life, physically-based lighting
and volumetric fog effects,
and a fully procedural cloud system
that evolves organically.
Tracks look alive, sound alive,
and feel alive with cutting-edge visuals
and crowds consisting of tens of thousands
of fully-animated 3D spectators,
so you're always immersed in
the pure spectacle of racing.
For the first time in Forza Motorsport,
fully dynamic time of day, with weather,
ensures a constantly-evolving
racing experience where no
two laps ever look the same.
Meanwhile, dynamic track temperatures,
wet driving surfaces, and rubbering in
ensure that no two laps ever play the same.
I love the detail our talented team
of artists have built into Kyalami.
Fast forward to night,
and the vista is truly breathtaking.
You can see the distant light glows
of the city, a beautiful visual touch.
Even the Kyalami logo itself creates
visual impact every time you see it.
Thanks to ray traced global illumination,
which simulates how
hundreds of thousands of light rays
accumulate color as they
bounce between surfaces.
We're rendering all our environments
in 4K at 60fps with real-time ray tracing
on-track to create true-to-life reflections
on all smooth mirror and flat glass surfaces.
With the incredible detail and
rendering features of our track environments,
Forza Motorsport is truly a
generational leap ahead with
unmatched visual fidelity and authenticity.
Forza Motorsport is back and it's our
most comprehensive game ever,
with over 500 cars and 20 environments,
with more new race cars than ever before.
You can experience all of this
in our incredible new online racing mode
and in our all new car-building-focused
single player career.
We cannot wait for you to get
your hands on this incredible game.
