The story
Forza Horizon 4 is an open world racing game set in a fictionalized representation of Great Britain, featuring regions inspired by Edinburgh, the Scottish Highlands, the Lake District, and the Cotswolds. The game introduces a dynamic seasonal system where the shared game world cycles through spring, summer, autumn, and winter each week, altering road conditions, opening new routes, and changing the landscape. Players collect and drive over 750 licensed cars across a variety of races, stunts, and challenges in servers supporting up to 72 players.
What it’s like
Sun-warmed country lanes unspool across a sprawling, hand-painted map, with the camera hugging a glossy car bonnet and motion blur smearing hedgerows into green streaks. The world shifts with the season: spring blossom gives way to summer haze, autumn leaves drift across tarmac, and winter brings snowfall and muffled, bright-white silence to the Highlands. Engines roar and gear shifts clack with satisfying weight, while a warm, looping soundtrack of indie and electronic tracks fills the gaps between races and rolls out of the car radio as you drive. The vibe is bright, breezy and carefree, a sunny road trip with no real stakes and no violence, though fast crashes and wrecked cars are played for slapstick rather than harm. Pacing is loose and self-directed: you can wander off-road for hours, chase collectible finds, or queue into races with friends, and the rhythm never feels rushed. It suits a lazy weekend, a background session with a snack, or a comfort drive after a long week. It's built for people who love cars and scenic exploration, want something gentle and social, and enjoy the satisfaction of a long, unhurried drive.
