Available in 4K 30 FPS on the Xbox Series X (1080p 30 FPS on Xbox Series S) with an optional 60 FPS performance mode, and ray tracing added to cars in Forzavista, you will be immersed in the open world of Horizon like never before." No mention of 1440p but that would be nice

I’m standing by this prediction, but pushing it to the next iteration another two years away. Forza Motorsport does away with sequel numbers, and the Horizon that follows it will do the same.

Press the left joystick I heard a dev say. This small detail has pleased me more than it should, driving games with the top down and summer tunes on Spotify is bliss.
