The studio responsible for The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered helped make the expansive Forza Horizon 6 car list.
Forza Horizon 6 sped out earlier this month to wide acclaim and an even wider player base thanks to the series' sturdy concoction of free-roaming virtual tourism and speedy, spectacle-driven races. But Playground Games had a little outside help on the project.
The Oblivion remasterers at Virtuos revealed as much in a recent online post: "The cars are at the heart of the Forza Horizon 6 experience, and we're proud to have had a hand in nearly 90% of them."
"Glass Egg – A Virtuos studio collaborated closely with Playground Games and Turn 10 Studios as an extension of their team to deliver expansive art production support for Forza Horizon 6, contributing to the development and refinement of all nine distinct biomes and roughly 90% of the vehicles in the game," it explained in a follow-up blog
"The team’s focus was on ensuring visual consistency, scalability, and uncompromised production quality across diverse, large-scale environments, helping create immersive and vibrant worlds that define the Forza Horizon 6 experience, as well as bringing the vehicle roster to life in breathtaking detail," it goes on.
This is actually Virtuos' third time working with Playground Games, the developer behind every open-world game in the racing series and the upcoming Fable reboot, after lending a hand on Forza Horizon 4 and Forza Horizon 5.
Virtuos itself is one of the most prominent co-developers in the biz, having contributed on everything from Metal Gear Solid Delta to Cyberpunk 2077 and Subnautica 2.
