The Forza franchise is hugely appreciated amongst racing and driving simulator game fans, most of whom rank it very highly in their favorite titles of the genre. Forza 4 is the latest iteration of the series, which you can play right now, but developer Turn 10 Studios is hard at work on the next one, which will be launched on the next generation console from Microsoft, called Xbox One – a replacement for the ageing current-gen 360.

The game is said to bring about improved graphical fidelity, car control and behavior, which will take full advantage of the technical capabilities of the new Xbox. In addition, it should be launched just after the new console hits store shelves, by the end of the year, so really the wait is not that great…

The brief trailer features the McLaren P1, which races its forefather, the F1, on what appears to be a very fast road course through a city, cheered on by wild crowds. We are waiting for additional details though, because so far all we have to go is the trailer and little more.
