Essential
Sep 30, 2018

I have been hooked. I don't see myself stopping anytime soon. With over 400 vehicles to choose from and the various types, there is plenty of gameplay still left. From Trucks, Hyper Cars, Formula Drift, trucks and even vans. I have never seen so many vehicles in one game. This is the most fulfilling game I have played. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys past Forza games or any racing game for that matter, FH4 tops them all.

What did I want from Forza Horizon 4? I wanted to jump in my car, join my friends seamlessly and tear up the road all day and night without getting bored. To be able to chill on my own, search for cars in barns, spend hours creating custom designs, and fine tune my vehicles. A map that would take me weeks to search every inch of, collect all the point boards and complete all the events and tasks. I wanted a game that promised substantial support and continued content. Did Forza Horizon 4 deliver on my expectations? Yes. I’m having a blast with friends, in some of the world’s finest automobiles, in picturesque Britain full of fields of autumn red leaves and spring fields of blossoms, crashing my way through most of the country-side. With Forza Horizon 4 you get what you would expect. It’s another Forza, there’s only so much variety you can get every year whilst still staying true to the core of what Horizon is about, however I have I am really enjoyed this year’s version of ‘the festival’.

Forza Horizon 4 is the masterful blend of racing and entertainment. It's a well-developed game with plenty of content for both casual and hardcore racers. I never had a dull moment racing through the cities and countryside of Great Britain. You will find plenty of variety in the races, cars, and customization options. And the visuals are breathtaking. My advice? Race to your nearest store (brick and mortar or digital) and buy a copy of Forza Horizon 4. You won't regret it.

Fortunately, two of those three complaints vanish once you put some time in, and you’ll have no trouble with that what with everything else available to do. This is the rare review title that I can see myself regularly coming back to in the future. Despite not being a car guy, Forza Horizon 4 is just plain fun, pure and simple.

Playground Games could have put out a near carbon copy of Forza Horizon 3 with a new setting and fans would have been happy, but they were not satisfied with simply doing that and instead provided us with the most ambitious and best entry in the series to date.

A game that manages to thrill both lovers of driving games and those of cars.

Playground Games has done it again. When you thought that they couldn't improve something that was already excellent in Forza Horizon 3, they managed to set the bar a little higher. Each section of the game is superb and it is difficult to find fault. And although details such as the appearance of grass at a short distance makes the technical section a little ugly, it does not seem like a sufficient reason to lower it from the maximum score. Forza Horizon 4 is a Masterpiece of arcade driving, there is no more.

It is pure fun and once you start playing it it is quite difficult to leave the control because you always find a new career to test your skills as a driver. The amount of options and activities that the game has means that you can dedicate hours and hours and never get bored with the game. In addition, the amount of content that is going to be added to the game in the coming months makes it a living experience that only gets better over time.

PlayGround Games has without a doubt outdone itself in this fourth installment of Horizon. The location suggests you'll end up in a drizzly place, but the game has more under its hood than you think possible. The map is huge and offers you numerous in addition to a varying landscape all kinds of cool races and activities.
