Turn 10 Studios recently made a correction to a previously published list of cars coming to Forza Motorsport this year.
On January 25, Turn 10 Studios Creative Director Chris Esaki posted a blog on Forza.net providing details related to the upcoming release of Forza Motorsport this year. In the post, there was a list of cars that included some of the 500 cars that were to be included as base content at launch.
Last week on March 2, the same Developer Direct blog post had added an editor’s note and the car list was changed. “We’ve updated this blog to remove mentions of some cars that won’t be available in the Forza Motorsport base game. We’ll share more in the future when these vehicles are coming to Forza Motorsport and how they can be obtained. We apologize for any confusion,” says the note
After reviewing the original list that was published on January 25th, it was found that six of the racing machines were removed from the list, assuming that in the Editor’s Note, they will not be available in the base edition from Forza Motorsports. These cars include:
- 2018 Audi #44 R8 LMS GT3
- 2021 Cadillac #31 Whelen Racing DPi-VR
- 2019 Ginetta #6 Team LNT Ginetta G60-LT-P1
- 2017 Oreca #38 Jackie Chan DC Racing Oreca 07
- 1983 Porsche #11 John Fitzpatrick Racing 956
- 2019 Porsche #70 Porsche Motorsport 935
Now, that doesn’t mean these cars aren’t in the game. The way it reads is that they will come, but they won’t just be included as base content. This could take one of many approaches, such as paid DLC, premium add-on content as previous Forza titles have done. AKA, spend more money.
It could also be like the current Forza Horizon 5 model, where new cars arrive monthly but are unlocked through challenges and completing certain tasks. We don’t really know what it could be at this point, but these six race cars were specifically removed and that’s worth noting.
As such, we’ve updated our own posts on the matter and will keep our eyes peeled for more information. A couple of these cars even appeared in promotional material two months ago, which makes it even stranger. Either way, keep it pinned.
