Forza Horizon 6 - Japan

I'm surprised there isn't a thread on this yet given it's out in a a little over a month.
 

 

 

 

 

There's some pretty good reviews coming out in the early previews highlighting the world variance and it feels more alive than previous titles.  Slightly improved physics and tweaks to game modes with the inclusion of time trial that you can do on circuits that are accessible in free roam.
 

 

 

I played FH4 a lot but didn't get on well with FH5 so much - playing it for a week or 2 when it was on game pass.  I've decided to buy this one though so hopefully it's good 😄

So can you just drive around in these and explore?

 

I would love to have a chill driving game where I can just sit back and enjoy the view.

Pretty much, yeah. Did you ever play the open world NFS games? As it's basically like that.  Or GTA if you can't get out of your car.  An open world you can cruise around, find stuff, easter eggs, collectibles or things like speed cameras to try and go the fastest through or drift zone challenges to score the most points on a section of road etc.  Though to progress the story you need to do actual races but, like NFS or GTA, you need to go to the place on the map to start them.  The world is multiplayer too so you'll find other people driving around or you can set up convoys to cruise around with or take photos.

FH5 was ok but I agree, preferred FH4. I also only played 5 on gamepass whereas I bought 4 and have it both on PC and Xbox. 

 

Since the ridiculous price hike for gamepass my Xbox has become kind of redundant but FH6 may be a purchase at some point, the reviews have all been very positive.

Yeah gamepass has become too expensive - I’m not paying £23 a month for it.  Especially when I’m only interested in FH6 and you can get a PC key for £40.

 

It’s coming to PS5 at the end of the year apparently.  So maybe a bit more FG interest then - though I didn’t realise that when I bought my PC key else I might have waited -  oops 😅
