Turn 10—the team behind the Forza Motorsport series—has quietly been shifted into a support role for Playground Games’ Forza Horizon franchise, according to a former employee’s post on ResetERA. After laying off over 70 staffers, the studio has “shuttered” its Motorsport division and now lends its expertise to Horizon instead of working on new Motorsport titles.

This shake-up comes amid a broader wave of Microsoft gaming cutbacks: Perfect Dark’s Initiative studio was shuttered, Rare’s Everwild got canned, a ZeniMax Online MMORPG and a Romero Games FPS were axed, and several other high-profile projects have been quietly killed off. Fans hoping for another Forza Motorsport reboot may have to wait a while.
