Forza 6 coming to PC?

[werto165]

"With GDC beginning today, the spotlight is geared towards Microsoft, as they fully demonstrate the capabilities of DirectX 12  and it’s implementation on Windows 10 and Xbox One. Reports from Worlds Factory, reveal that Microsoft might be preparing a PC version of it’s Forza series. Microsoft, first revealed DirectX 12  at GDC 2014, with a demo Forza Motorsport 5, running on PC at 60 FPS. The session was tilted DirectX: Evolving Microsoft’s Graphics Platform. No further details were given at the time, although, Chris Tector, Software Architect of Turn 10 studios did mention that it only took four months using a four man team to get the game running. He also added:

 

We’re very excited to see console-style development coming to the PC through D3D12."

 

 

A lot of hype was built up about the previous GDC forza 5 running on direct x 12, however later the devs debunked that forza is coming to PC. However, just last year they said that they would not port an exsisting game but they would build a forza for that specific platform(the PC). 

 

 

Skip to 16:40 to see where I got this info from. 

 

However when the did reveal forza 6 with the new ford car at the end it said exclusive to xbox one. But it's got to be something big forza related otherwise why would they do a conference @gdc with the name evolving microsofts graphics platform. 

 

 

Chris Tector software architect @ turn 10. Nothing big coming out that forza related will be very surprising. 

 

EDIT: I made a do-do, that evolving microsofts graphic platform was last years this is the one I was meant to link:

However it's still being done by chris tector so I'm all good. And the name of the conference needs less reading between the lines " DEVELOPING GAMES FOR WINDOWS 10!";

I found a good article with a lot more evidence than I do: http://www.worldsfactory.net/2015/03/02/rumor-forza-pc-might-be-announced-gdc2015

[Damikiller37]

Yes please! Hopefully that includes the Horizon part of the series

[HippY]

when the presentation will be?

[JAKEBAB]

Argh!!! i need horizon 2 on it, i don't care too much about the motorsport series anymore now that ive played horizon, but i guess any forza on pc will be nice. 

 

Then i could use my G27 and be a very happy chap

[pomaranc]

Yes please! Hopefully that includes the Horizon part of the series

That would be awesome, horizon 2 seems to be awesome but Xbox doesn't support my racing rig and 30FPS in unplayable

[ThyFeared]

Yes please! Hopefully that includes the Horizon part of the series

I really want Horizon 2 on pc. It's such a treat on the console but it could be so much more on PC
