BMW Month kicks off in Forza Motorsport

Forza Motorsporthas enjoyeda rather transformative 2024. The game runs well now, has plenty ofpermanent content, and even featuresray-traced global illuminationif you’ve got the rig for it.

In the broadest sense possible, Update 16 may well be somewhat disappointing from a feature and core gameplay improvement point of view. The focus falls squarely on the frankly impressive suite of new BMW vehicles, and so we’re not getting a new track or anything of the kind this time around....
