" Forza Horizon 2 on Xbox 360 will be a &amp;quot;different game&amp;quot; to the Xbox One version and not a straight port, Playground Games has explained. While the open-world sequel on previous generation hardware will have a different engine, developer and set of features, it is still &amp;quot;inspired by the same ideas&amp;quot; as the Xbox One version.  &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s based in the same world, it&amp;#039;s based on the same themes,&amp;quot; creative director Ralph Fulton told Digital Spy at E3 2014. &amp;quot;Rather than thinking of them as the same game on different platforms, they are different games inspired by the same ideas.&amp;quot; Forza Horizon 2 on Xbox One will use the same technology as Forza Motorsport 5, while the Xbox 360 edition - developed by Sumo Digital - will run on the same engine as the original Forza Horizon. While Microsoft will talk more specifically about the Xbox 360 edition later this year, Fulton confirmed the weather system and Drivatars are only possible on Xbox One. &amp;quot;There are things we are doing in Forza Horizon 2 on Xbox One that honestly couldn&amp;#039;t be done on any other console,&amp;quot; he said. Fulton recently confirmed that Forza Horizon 2 will launch without the franchise&amp;#039;s micro-transaction &amp;#039;token&amp;#039; system. Forza Horizon 2 will be released on September 30.
