Quote:In fact, the GT2 RS is the cover car for Forza 7, which comes out this fall on Project Scorpio, PC, and Xbox One. And while test mules of the car have been spotted (and even driven) for months, this was the first time the public’s seen the final thing.

FORZA MOTORSPORT 7 FIRST LOOK: THE SERIES REFOCUSES ON ITS DRIVERSHow Turn 10 is trying to make more than just a prettier sequelby Sean O'Kane@sokane1 Jun 11, 2017, 5:11pm EDT

Last month, I went to Turn 10’s offices to see Forza ahead of its E3 debut. I spent a little under 30 minutes playing the game, and the rest of the trip speaking with the team that brought it to life.

Pics: official screenshots from FM7, a photog pic of Turn 10 Studios.
Topics:
Customizable characters - over 300 character designs, loadout style pre-race screen, characters on podium post-race and in drivatars visible to friends
Quote:"What’s more, each one of the five discrete pieces that makes up a character (the helmet, the suit, etc.) has its own 4K asset. Zoom in on a helmet and you’ll see realistic scuffs and smudges on the visor — and on some special helmets, signatures that look like they were just Sharpie-d on.
Quote:Players will be able to choose between everything from real race suits with HANS devices, to old-timey outfits with leather helmets, to some even goofier additions from pop culture. (Expect a lot of “era-specific inside jokes,” Lee laughs. “There's a lot of middle-aged people that work here.”) With Forza featuring real racing series like IndyCar and NASCAR, you can also expect to see some more iconic suits as well, set to be announced later this summer.
Platforms:
Quote:Well, for one thing, this will be the first full Forza title available on PC.
Controllers:
Quote:Turn 10 says it has tested everything from PlayStation DualShocks to pro racing wheels to Guitar Hero controllers, and all of them work with Forza 7 on PC.
Assists:
Quote: One particular new option is a “friction assist,” which lets the player turn up or down how severely they’ll be affected by driving off track.
Watch 5 minutes of Forza 7 gameplay in 4K at 60 frames per secondhttps://www.theverge.com/2017/6/11/15776722/e3-2017-forza-motorsport-7-4k-video-watchby Sean O'Kane@sokane1 Jun 11, 2017, 5:13pm EDT
Quote:Forza Motorsport 7 was just announced at E3, and we’ve got an exclusive first look at the game, which you can see above. The first Forza for Microsoft’s new Xbox One X will take advantage of the console’s boost in power to run natively in 4K at 60 frames per second. The 5-minute clip shows off what that looks like with a quick race in a Nissan GT-R at Nürburgring.
That clip also shows off something else: Forza Motorsport 7 finally brings dynamic weather to the series.
