…Six years is a long time in sim racing. A long enough time for Turn 10 Studios to tear almost everything down and start over, to dream up a new future for the hardcore side of the Forza brand. The result, for better or worse, is the biggest departure in series history since the team gave Gran Turismo its first genuine competition 18 years ago.

Turn 10 may not make motor-masochists of us all, but what’s here is a pleasure – a rarer beast than its sibling, with secrets to guard and passion to impart. Whether that passion will be enough to unite the audience, and tempt in the Horizon holidaymakers, remains to be seen. The welcome is here, but will it wear them out?

While our time spent playing Forza Motorsport has been short so far, we’re itching to dive back in. The franchise is known for being able to tweak your racing experience, including the skill of your opponents, and the rewards associated, and this is no different. Even little touches like being able to choose your grid position, and placing a bet on yourself and your own skills, is a tantalising prospect.

The previewers are share one thing in common: excitement for Forza Motorsport. It’s been six long years since we’ve gotten a new entry in this acclaimed series—the Forza Horizon subseries notwithstanding, as it is a very different experience with an open world format and decidedly “arcadey” driving. At this point there’s little doubt that this reboot will deliver when it releases on October 10.
