Forza Motorsport Co-Founder Dan Greenawalt Leaves Turn 10 After 27 Years

Dan Greenawalt, a director, founder and vice president at Turn 10 Games, has departed the studio after 27 years with the company. He was one of the people behind Turn 10, the developer best known for the Forza Motorsport racing series.

His exit comes as Turn 10 is merged into Playground Games, the studio behind Forza Horizon. The move is part of Xbox's broader restructuring, which earlier this year led to around 3,200 layoffs and the closure of four studios.

The source report does not say what prompted Greenawalt's departure or what his next move is. It also does not detail how the merger will change Turn 10's staff or its future work on Forza Motorsport. Players and industry watchers will likely be looking for those answers as the combined team takes shape.
