A trademark for something called Forza Vista has just been filed by Microsoft and, while it could be a new game in the racing series, its description hints at it being the designation for a feature in a future title, possibly the one that's being rumored for the Xbox 720.

The Forza Motorsport series saw the release of multiple games, with the most recent being Forza Horizon last year.

Now, Microsoft has just filed a trademark for something called Forza Vista, according to Siliconera.

While this could be the name for a new game in the racing series for the Xbox 720, its description actually says it's a "feature of interactive video game software which allows players to obtain statistical information of internal and external features of a vehicle and to virtually navigate and operate those vehicles."

Forza Motorsport 4 had a similar system called Auto Vista, so it's possible that Forza Vista is either a rebranding or an overhauled version of that mechanic.
