All Future Forza Games Are Coming to PC and Xbox, Microsoft Confirms

Additionally, Turn 10 confirms Apex Edition will run at 60fps and at a resolution of up to 4K.

261 Comments

This spring's Forza 6 Apex will be the first entry in the racing series to come to PC, but it won't be the last. Today at Microsoft's Build conference in San Francisco, the company aired a new Forza video in which Turn 10 creative director Dan Greenawalt says all future Forza games are coming to Xbox and PC.

No Caption Provided

In the video, Greenawalt says Apex represents the "first step" in the Forza series shifting to Windows 10. It also aims to be a "proof point" of what developers can do using Microsoft's Universal Windows Platform, which allows studios to make games across all Windows 10 devices.

Now Playing: Forza Motorsport 6 - Apex - Development on the Unified Windows Platform

"Moving forward, all of our games are going to be shipping on Windows 10 and Xbox," Greenawalt said. "The Universal Windows Platform is great for the game developers and gamers alike. It's going to become even more powerful as a way of delivering amazing experiences across all of the devices in the Windows ecosystem."

It's also confirmed in the video that Apex is capable of running at 60fps and at a resolution of 4K if your computer can manage it. This is the highest level of fidelity in the history of the Forza franchise.

Apex, a free-to-play version of Forza 6, is due out later this spring, though a release date has not been announced. Another Forza game has been announced and will be properly unveiled at E3 2016. This game's "cover car" is the Lamborghini Centenario, which isn't available in the real world yet.

@lonesamurai1: Forza won't look any better on the xbox one andwill likely be nerfed to be on xbox one as well. Also they likely won'toptimize towards the one hardware of xbox one.

@aiden_kasel: You know Microsoft games are still Xbox exclusive, right? You need to use Xbox app on PC via Windows 10 store to play those exclusive games.

I can't wait for cross play and cross buy between Xbox One and PC though

@DeadPhoenix86: DRM is a big issue + gog are less scummy, steam has gotten arrogant and try to abuse their power.

The fact is that steamisn't the worst option but gog are literally the good guys with good policies for gamers. If you can get a game on gog, get it, if not, steam it.

@DeadPhoenix86: The only thing I didn't like about the Windows Store in the past is that it didn't have a whole lot of good games on it. Hmm, if only there were a way to solve that ;)

@LPDisturbedHU: Microsoft shouldn't force games to one Store. Plus most games are capped at 60 fps and V-sync is engaged. and V-sync is cancer :/

Hell yes, how can people be mad? Despite the UWP (yes I know it's flawed as **** atm), you can still just grab a copy on Xbox if your hate runs that deep. This is great for gamers. Can't wait to play Horizon 3 at 60fps.

@putaspongeon: You're coming at this from an odd angle. There are still plenty of console exclusives to go around. Not everyone wants to lay down $1500 on a dope ass PC, when you can conveniently buy a console for $400 and play all the latest titles. Believe it or not, some people don't give a shit about insane graphics and super high frame rates, and would rather just blob out on the couch and jam some games easily. Consoles are portable, couch friendly, with a concise focus on games and entertainment. This ain't rocket science, I'm sure you know this. I own an Xbox One am I'm glad these games aren't being locked down.

Change can be a good thing you know, this is a more consumer friendly tactic as it gives us a CHOICE between our favoured platform.

@HippyTrippy: "console exclusive"

Also you can play games at the same settings as an xbox one at 300ish dollars, 400 dollars would surpass the xbox one. Also you have pc exclusives (tons), plus better sales.

People bought the xbox one over the holidays for quantum brek and gears of war 4, along with forza titles. They were lied that these were true exclusives, literal stuff says they were true exclusive, then they went "hahaha, we got your money, it's coming to pc"

You can play pc on the couch, you can hook your xbox controllers to your pc (or ps4), and you can hook your computer to your tv monitor.

The fact is that why would you get "concise" when you get get vague that has the same quality if not better on games + has a lot more content + the other stuff.

It's not rocket science, it's just above your head.

@putaspongeon: No one has been "lied" to. People have full known, and even asked for these games to cross over to PC. Quantum Break has always been coming to the PC, for a long time. Remember when The Division was originally going to be exclusive to consoles? Or are you upset about that too? Your comment - "hahaha, we got your money, it's coming to pc" makes absolutely no sense at all. If I'm a PC gamer and I want play a Forza title, or Quantum Break, I'd have to shell out all that money for the console. Whereas giving PC gamers access to these titles gives a us choice. It means we don't HAVE to buy the system, and we may play on our preferred platform. Yes, "haha", they do have their money, but the consumer also still has a copy of said game on their Xbox.

It's like you're against freedom or something. These future Forza games and Quantum Break are not even out yet, there has been ample talk of the possibility of cross-over. Development is the ability to evolve and progress, this all part of that, moving their games forward, into more gamers hands - and it seems you don't like it. Yes, of course you can build a PC and use it just like a console, but not everyone wants to do that.

@HippyTrippy: PC beggars have asked for it to come to pc. Also people haven'tknown until they revealed it a month before release.

People bought xbox ones for quantum break, xbox were scummy even though they knew it was coming to pc all along, this is literally as scummy as shit.

@putaspongeon: Only children get mad when someone else has access to the same things they have, especially when it doesn't affect your experience at all. Is that what you are? A child?

@Baconstrip78: I don't have an xbox one and I'm glad I didn't buy it, it's corporate scumbag shit though to claim something is ONLY on xbox one just to push sales and then flip flop on it. I don't care about it but honestly this kind of thing should honestly be illegal and it cheated a lot of people out of money through dishonesty, microsoft is scum.
