Should be said, if not mentioned in the article, that only Xbox One X owners download the 4K versions of games; people with a normal Xbox One and Xbox One S will get a smaller version without the 4K assets.
I'm going to guess that when you hook up your external HDD to a Xbox One X with non-4K versions of games that they will update to the 4K version, I'm hoping we will have an option to download the 4K version before Xbox One X comes out.

I believe it was part of the Digital Foundry/Eurogamer tech reveal or said by an Xbox executive around that time; but I know for sure that only Xbox One X owners get the 4K version. I would guess it's part of the Xbox One X enhancement program where certain games will receive updates for Xbox One X that only Xbox One X owners get access to.
Now I will say that I have no idea exactly if this 100 GB number is the 4K version but considering Forza 6 is 50 GB I'm pretty sure it is.(I would guess that the normal version of Forza 7 is 60-70 GB.)
I think they expect the kind of person to buy an Xbox One X is the same kind of person that already owns an Xbox One with an external HDD.

4K assets on tracks(unlike open world where they reuse a ton of assets(open world games have large biomes where you a much smaller amount of textures to cover a large part of the map) a game like Forza has wildly different environments that require wildly different textures; you can't use a texture from Dubai on a track in Virginia.), cars and more.
Forza Horizon 3:
- Jungle
- City
- Desert
- Snow
- Hot Wheels
Forza Motorsport 7 has 30+ different environments and you can't even reuse textures for similar oval tracks as they recreate them as realistically as possible.
They are also using Photogrammetry to create a number of textures making them even more unique and taking up even more room.

Nope. This is for 1080p/Mid settings. It´s like that for every game i think.

"Console peasant" calling in..
What do you think the recommended specs would be in order to run Forza Motorsport 7 at 4K/60fps with all graphical settings at Ultra?
I'm just curious as to what sort of PC would be required to run such a thing (although if I get Forza Motorsport 7 I'm getting an Xbox One X anyway).

I think we will see the official requirements in the next couple month.
The Apex ones should give an provisional point of reference.
I will give it it try on my pc and also try it on my Xbox One to see how it looks. But i´m sure i will also buy the X when it´s available

Knowing that makes me glad that I bought an external harddrive for my Xbox One and I'm not getting the Xbox One X version.
