Even more so now that consoles use 'normal' processors etc. The problem is devs wanting to avoid cannibalising console sales by releasing a PC version, as there is more money in consoles.

Now that PC games seem to cost around the same as consoles on release, surely a lost console sale to PC makes no difference to them?

Headline games are used to shift consoles. Plenty of us have bought a console for one killer game.

Is it right that only dx12 card will run this

Amnesia · 1 May 2016 at 21:12

So is this to try and get people over to windows 10 and use their app store ?

It's not DX12 exclusive. It's W10 exclusive.

Soon....

Soon indeed. Not that excited for a watered down free BETA, however I'm really interested in the future of Forza on PC. Opinions tomorrow please.

According to the minimum specs it needs dx12 able card so yeah probably dx12 title. Which in turn means w10 only and only on MS store.

Think I might check this out, off today and need an excuse to check out the Windows Store.

Not sure how to get it working mind, I disabled the Store when I upgraded to 10.

Uncle_Gravy · 5 May 2016 at 10:32

Do we know what time it unlocks?

wellibob · 5 May 2016 at 10:56

cant find any info other than 5th may. probably 5th May west coast USA 12pm !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TonyTurbo78 · 5 May 2016 at 11:14

One thing I've learnt from this so far, the Windows store sucks donkey ****

I hate that I'm being forced to use this to see what my all time fav racer is like on PC.

Something like that probably, given that's where MS/Turn 10 are located.

Wonder how my 560ti will cope, bless it. Been tempting to grab a 7970 for cheap while I wait for my 980ti to repair. Mustn't though.. money wasted when I really needn't spend it.

wellibob · 5 May 2016 at 12:09

Vroom Vroom. I'm more curious about this than anything tbh.

LHM · 5 May 2016 at 12:12

will this have Thrustmaster steering wheel support?

wellibob · 5 May 2016 at 12:16

no wheel support at launch of open beta (gamepad only)

Skeeter · 5 May 2016 at 12:30

Is this in the Windows store yet?
