Every week, the look and feel of its English countryside would change from winter to spring to summer to fall. 9, 2021įorza Horizon 4 is most notable for its introduction of the season system to the open-world franchise.
But those feelings of been there/done that dissipated when I discovered Forza Horizon 5‘s secret weapon: the weather.įorza Horizon 5 (PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X) Jumping from the UK to Mexico felt like nothing more than a palette swap at first, with the same activities I completed on the snowy hillsides outside Edinburgh showing their face here. Playing around two dozen hours of Forza Horizon 4 certainly prepared me for what Playground Games had in store for the sequel, but it also put a spotlight on just how similar the two games are. It’s a playground for anyone who loves to get behind the wheel and drive. While I would argue the unique handling of each vehicle, realistic road conditions, and fine-tuning options of Horizon 4 sets it apart from pure arcade racers like, say, Cruis’n Blast, the sheer number of jumps I went off and hovercrafts I raced would certainly make me refrain from referring to it simply as a sim. Not wanting to make that mistake again should I be called on to review the full game, I spent the last month playing Forza Horizon 4to better familiarize myself with how others see the series.Īnd yeah, I get it now. It was my first time playing anything related to the Forza franchise, so when I referred to it as a “racing sim,” many people were quick to point out how wrong that description was. Last month I had the pleasure of previewing Forza Horizon 5, the latest in the Forza spin-off series from developer Playground Games.
You better bend before I go in the first car to Mexico
