We’re looking back at another content-packed year for Forza.

Forza Motorsport
2024 was a steady year of progress for Forza Motorsport. Between 12 content updates, the game bolstered its lineup of cars and tracks, while also introducing several new features and quality of life improvements,
many of which were inspired by the community voting on Suggestions Hub.
Some of the notable track highlights over the past year include Nürburgring Nordschleife, Sebring International Raceway, Road Atlanta,
Sunset Peninsula – last featured in Forza Motorsport 4 – and most recently, Mount Panorama Circuit, Bathurst – home of the V8 Supercars Championship.
Many new and returning cars were also added to the game, such as the 2024 Next-Gen NASCAR, 2024 Ford Mustang RTR, 2019 Ginetta G40 Junior, 2018 Aston Martin #97 AMR Vantage GTE, 2018 Saleen S302 Black Label, 1988 Chevrolet #77 Beretta Trans Am, and even more.
There have been improvements to overall stability and performance, new game modes like Drift, Endurance and Multi-Class, and a host of new feature additions, including Car Proximity Radar, Spectate, Practice & Qualifying in Private Multiplayer, Advanced Car Ghosting, and more.
With Challenge Hub, it became possible to earn reward cars by playing either the Career or Featured Multiplayer, and we’ve continued making updates to other aspects of the game, including visual fidelity and audio quality, Drivatar AI, Forza Race Regulations, and Driver & Safety Ratings.

As we work towards the future of Forza Motorsport, we started some new community initiatives this year to help ensure we’re going in the right direction.
Our team has been sharing progress updates in our letters to the community, and
we kicked off a new “In the Garage” Discord AMA series to allow our developers to go deeper into the areas of the game that you care the most about.
We also opened the Forza Insiders Program where you can
sign up for the opportunity to participate in playtests of future Forza Motorsport updates on PC or console as well as share your opinions on game content in feedback surveys and our exclusive forums.
We’ve
celebrated numerous partnerships throughout 2024, including Mobil 1 –
with new Rivals challenges and a rebranding of Maple Valley – as well as Logitech, Bridgestone, McLaren, and NASCAR. An undoubtable highlight was teaming up with the iconic Jordan brand and NBA All-Star Luka Dončić to create bespoke
in-game content inspired by the Jordan Luka 3 sneaker collection and its “Motorsport” colorway. We designed a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro inspired by the sneaker, featuring the iconic elephant print, the Jordan Jumpman emblem, and Luka’s logo. Additionally, Forza Motorsport players can compete in the Jordan Luka 3 Motorsport Series using this car – on the Hakone track branded with Jordan Luka 3 signage for a full immersive experience– to unlock a custom racing suit. And
we also made the vehicle available to everyone playing Forza Horizon 5.
What's Next?
In the grand scheme of time, 2024’s coming and going marks 19 years since the release of the very first Forza game. That’s right—2025 is Forza’s 20th anniversary, and we’re planning some fun activities and surprises for the whole Forza community next year.
Thanks for racing with us this year, and we’ll see you on the road in 2025!
