Forza Motorsport 6: Apex Getting An Open Beta
Forza Motorsport 6: Apex isn't just a port of Forza 6 for Windows 10 players. No, the game is a curated experience of the Xbox One title, and players will get to see what it has to offer before they buy it thanks to an open beta.
The game's beta starts on May 5, and although neither it nor the full Apex game has the series' famed livery editor, an update to the beta will include a selection of curated livery designs.
Apex will evolve as time goes on to include wheel support and other PC-centric features. The game requires Windows 10, and does not feature online multiplayer racing.

Our Take
The game is free and will be updated as time goes on, so this is more of a soft launch than a beta per se. Regardless, this is a chance to let your thoughts be known about the title and where it should go.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
