The finite temperature transition in QCD is studied using Wilson quarks for the cases of $N_F=2$, 3 and 2+1. For $N_F=2$ the transition is smooth in the chiral limit on both $\nt=4$ and 6 lattices. For $N_F=3$, clear two state signals are observed for $\beta\leq4.7$ on $8^2\times10 \times4$ and $12^3\times4$ lattices, which implies the transition is first order for $m_q \simm{<} 140$ MeV. For $N_F=2+1$ we study two cases of $m_s \simeq 150$ and 400 MeV with $m_u=m_d \simeq 0$. In contrast to a previous result with staggered quarks, two state signals are clearly observed for both cases, suggesting a first order QCD phase transition in the real world.
