In a recent GDC Virtual Talk over on YouTube (which you can see above), CG Supervisor Matt Collins from Forza Motorsport developer Turn 10 Studios discussed how the team creates art assets for the franchise, and revealed a few images that might hint at what to expect from the inevitable (but currently unannounced) Forza Motorsport 8.
The images in question are shown beginning at around the 18:00 mark in the video, but if you don't want to sift through it, you can see a few of them below:
It's important to note that these images have not been confirmed as official Forza Motorsport 8 screenshots. One of them was used to show off lighting and other visual effects in the presentation, and two of them were used as scene construction examples. That said, we think they're looking very nice indeed, regardless of where they come from!
Are you excited for a new Forza Motorsport on Xbox Series X? Let us know in the comments.

Love everything Forza great games.
It looks more like Forza 7 to me...
They look nice, but not nice as in "blowing me away next gen" nice, so if that's all that we can expect of series X, then I don't think I'm going to be all that impressed with the next Forza, unfortunately.
There’s bound to eventually be a peak of what Turn 10 can do graphically with the Forza series, I mean what can we expect after Forza 7? It could look photo-realistic to the point where you’d struggle to see the difference from real-life but I really don’t think we’ll be seeing anything on that scale on any game at all on the Series X.
There is actually one game that borders on real-life looks and that’s Flight Simulator 2020 but whether the in-game screenshots will look like they do on the Series X, we won’t know until it’s actually out.
i hope we get a Forza 8, i love the main line Forza series
That doesn't look very next gen at all, so hopefully when they start showing stuff off it will look amazing
These shots dont look to much better than FM7 or GT Sport honestly. Im sure when they eventually show off the new Forza game it will look amazing!
If this is is a glimpse into the next Forza, it's probably the current-gen version.
I fully suspect the Series X version to use a ray-traced global illumination technique and ray-traced reflections - Microsoft isn't going to tout its custom RT-cores and not have them get used on first-party games.
I like racing games, but I am more of a Forza Horizon guy than a Forza Motorsport guy. And I don’t like racing games enough to play two different franchises, so I go with Horizon.
Turn 10 does do amazing work for people who love sim-style racers though.
