"Forza Horizon 2 will feature a Kinect-based personal assistant called ANNA, Playground Games has confirmed. Creative director Ralph Fulton told Examiner that the Kinect-based assistant would offer navigational advice, provide event suggestions and inform users when friends are online.  &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re still really excited about including Kinect,&amp;quot; Fulton explained. &amp;quot;It offers opportunities we wouldn&amp;#039;t normally otherwise have.  &amp;quot;Kinect will be involved with a feature called ANNA. She is your digital personal assistant and navigation in the game.  &amp;quot;She is also very intelligent and will suggest things to do in the game and give you a recap when you return to the games. She will also alert you when friends are online.&amp;quot; Elsewhere, Fulton said that snowy weather would not feature and that handling would change based on the weather. He also ruled out a story mode, but said that the game would have a &amp;quot;strong structure set up around the festival and the Drivatars&amp;quot;.  Forza Horizon 2 will be developed by Playground Games for Xbox One and by Sumo Digital for Xbox 360. It will launch on September 30. The game is said to be three times the size of the original with more than 100 hours of content. It will also launch without a microtransaction token system.
