High quality upscaling and in-race ray tracing are now available in Forza Horizon 5
Forza Horizon 5 has just recieved a major update, adding support for new vehicles, customisation options, a new test track, and extended ray tracing options on PC. Additionally, both DLSS 2.4 and FSR 2.2 have been added to the PC version of Forza Horizon 5 on PC.
Following the positive reception of Forza Horizon 5's TAA support, Playground Games has added support for temporal upscaling to their game. DLSS (and DLAA) will be available for owners of Nvidia's RTX graphics hardware, and AMD's FSR 2.2 technology will be available for owners of graphics cards from AMD, Nvidia, and Intel. Playground Games has confirmed that DLSS 3 support is not currently planned.
On PC, two new ray tracing settings are coming to Forza Horizon 5, with Ultra and Extreme offering gamers the ability to turn on ray tracing in free roam mode and during races. Ultra mode will enable ray tracing at half of your screen's resolution, and extreme mode will enable full resolution ray tracing. In photo mode, ray tracing has also been added to the vehicles of AI drivers, improving the fidelity of screenshots with ray tracing enabled.
The chart below showcases how Forza Horizon 5's new ray tracing update affects Forza Horizon 5's visuals.
Previously, ray tracing was a feature that was exclusive to Forza Horizon 5's Forzavista mode. Soon, ray tracing will be available during gameplay to PC gamers with strong enough hardware.

Also, they did add in raytracing, so even if you're on a 3070 you'll probably want DLSS if you'd like to enable RT at 4k.Quote
