With Forza Motorsport in the hands of players, a ton of opinions about the game have emerged online. While users online appear to have certain complaints, many have been blown away by the title’s visuals.



Forza Motorsport, Turn 10’s latest sim racer, packs in around 500 cars and 20 tracks at launch with more coming in the future. The game also features new modes for players to enjoy, including the Builder’s Cup. The integration of a brand-new car progression system also spices up the gameplay with the emphasis now being on becoming more and more familiar with the vehicles.

Besides this, Forza Motorsport features a slew of graphics enhancements that make the game pure eye candy. From upgraded foilage to improved lighting, the game’s visuals have seen many advancements. New additions to the car roster have been scanned and recreated with plenty of detail, and the tracks also receive a similar treatment.

On the topic of visuals, raytracing was one of the features players were looking forward to the most. The PC and Xbox Series X/S versions of the game support raytracing, and when combined with its dynamic weather, fans have been left stunned by the end result.

Players have shared many clips of Forza Motorsport in action while marveling at the visuals. The graphics during rain-soaked races, as seen in this clip shared by X user ‘Niko, have attracted tons of praise. The user’s drive on the new Grand Oak raceway left fans amazed, with realistic reflections that caught the community’s eye.

One player complimented the visuals saying, “This looks absolutely gorgeous.” Another stated, “I’ve never seen more realistic wet track look. This is exciting since it will make other devs want to out do it! A win for racing game fans.”

The graphics on display managed to impress a majority of users. Hopefully, the consensus will be just as positive as more and more players jump into Forza Motorsport.
