Forza Horizon 6

The Horizon festival now moves to Japan. According to the official description, the game features Tokyo, described as the largest urban area in the whole series, with contrasts between city and countryside, varied biomes and the densest map ever built for Horizon.

The game advertises more than 550 real cars, including collectible Japanese models, reworked engine sounds and 540 degrees of steering rotation. On the social side, the official page highlights car meets with friends, the test lab and Co-lab to build together. Players can also buy houses in the valley and display their collection in customizable garages.

On Xbox Series X, critics are highly enthusiastic. Eurogamer (5/5) says Playground finally delivers, 14 years on, on the series' original promise. Game Informer (9.25/10) sees one of the greatest racing games of this generation, though it misses Kyoto and Osaka. Metro (9/10) enjoys the endless flow of cars and events while noting there are few new ideas. GamesRadar+ (4/5) praises "the best racing game engine ever made" but finds the racing itself a bit too safe. Gamekult (8/10) sees the dream Japan the series needed, with an RPG-style progression structure that is starting to show its age.
