Forza Motorsport 6

With August now halfway over — what?! — Forza Motorsport 6 is now available gratis on the Microsoft Store for Xbox Live Gold subscribers.

Turn 10 has confirmed what many of us suspected: in just over a month, Forza Motorsport 6 will disappear from Microsoft’s digital storefront.

Xbox Live subscribers, rejoice! While a new Forza title isn’t on the docket for this year, that doesn’t mean players will be left high and dry. Next month, Forza Motorsport 6 will headline the free Games With Gold lineup.

What’s faster? A real life car or its digital counterpart around the same track?

Early last month McLaren-Honda revealed its entry into the world of esports, known as World’s Fastest Gamer. Partnered with peripheral manufacturer Logitech, WFG aims to help the F1 team find the ten fastest gamers in the world.

As the 85th running of the Le Mans 24 Hours heads into the final hours, another race begins in France. The Forza Racing Championship Season 3 grand finale kicks off shortly, with $100,000 in prize money up for grabs.

The third season of the Forza Racing Championship is currently underway. Today, Turn 10 has announced where the final event will take place, and it’s a familiar one for motorsports fans. That’s right: it’s heading to Le Mans.

Big savings have again arrived for the Forza series for Xbox Live Gold members. In this week’s Deals With Gold, Microsoft has combined Forza Motorsport 6 and Forza Horizon 2 (the Xbox One version) into one bundle, along with other content such as Car Passes and a VIP membership for sale separately.

Microsoft has finally lifted the lid on its latest Xbox One model, with Project Scorpio having all sorts of technical specs being revealed to the public eye. Whilst it doesn’t have an official name, price or aesthetic look, the type of power the console will be capable of in relation to its fellow hardware seem nothing short of staggering.

At the tail-end of 2015, Turn 10 quietly snuck the 1966 Nissan Silvia into Forza Motorsport 6, mated alongside the Mobil 1 Car Pack released just two days earlier. Not formally announced, players quickly identified that the CSP311 could only be obtained through the game’s career mode.

Racers with an Xbox Live Gold membership looking to snatch two of Turn 10’s Forza Motorsport games are in for a deal this week, as a bundle combining FM5 and FM6 is now available on the Xbox Store at a reduced price.  

Forza Motorsport 6 players were faced with an unexpected title update for the game yesterday. Continuing to build off of the foundation set late last year with an eSports-focused update introducing a number of new features, another effort has arrived with the intent of improving the game’s multiplayer and spectator features ahead of the third season of the ForzaRC.

After three weeks of qualifying, the final set of races in Season 2 of the Forza Racing Championship is set to start in a few hours. This season brought a dozen names into today’s race, while the other four that are taking part were winners from last season, including Laige (who made off with a brand new Focus RS). The full lineup today:

The third and final Showdown event of ForzaRC Season 2 is about to kick off. Last week’s bahn-storming RS6 Avants are traded in for something altogether faster, as the 16 racers will be piloting Audi’s fearsome R18 e-tron.

The strapping Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat has become the subject of another audio evaluation in GT Sport. Carried out by MotoGamesTV once more, the footage puts together GT Sport’s latest direct-capture audio sample of the car against the one found in Forza Motorsport 6.

After an exciting Audi RS6 showdown, the racing keeps getting more intense in the Forza Racing Championship. Drivers this week will be treated to some high speed fun in both the Elite and Recreational categories. The stars of the track this week will be the Audi #2 Audi Team Joest R18 e-tron quattro for Elite-class drivers and the Audi RS5 Coupe for those participating in the Recreational Series.
