Forza Horizon studio working on new racing title
A number of ads on Playground's careers page (as spotted by Videogamer) suggest the studio is working on a new racing game due for release late next year.
One ad, for a rendering engineer, reads as follows: "Working at senior level in a team of rendering engineers, you will be responsible for implementation of cutting edge rendering techniques. Engineers with in-depth knowledge of current-gen consoles are ideal for this role, as you will innovate on this technology to produce a visually stunning title."
Another ad, for senior game designer, concludes: "This is an opportunity to join a highly experienced team at an early stage of development and help define the vision for a genre-leading game."
Whatever the new game is, it won't be Forza Motorsport 5, which is currently being developed by Turn 10 and set for release as an Xbox One launch title.
In our Forza Horizon review, we called Playground's game "an exceptional open-world racer, burdened slightly by the series' heritage and all the expectations that the Forza brand brings."

BacudaCokes Re-reading this, I'm thinking...they should name it forza something. I'm sure people would buy it for the brand name Forza.
I don't know honestly, Forza Horizon was fun and all, but it took the focus away from what Forza really is, the Forza franchise is of Driving Simulation, but Forza Horizon was a more of a Driving Playground (ironic, I know). It was an amazing game and a great addition to the franchise, but if Playground Games create their own franchise then it could have a much better turn out.
Dude the game is fun its the most real race hgame out there.

Accel I personally have never played horizon. I have some friends that tell me its really good. I also am not into racing games. But if this new racing game they are working on is any good and open world I will be getting it just to try it.
It really combines the gamer and the car lover, because it's fun for everyone to play and not as complexed as Forza games usually are.
