#FORZA HORIZON PC REVIEW PLUS#
Given that these involve the glare-and-scare of oncoming traffic, plus the occasional spine-juddering crash, I’m not sure that this is an entirely legal fiefdom of the festival’s outreach.
It falls to you, as ever, to broaden the Horizon, so to speak-setting up regional centres for road and cross-country events, and establishing a street-racing scene in the nearby city of Guanajuato. tents, and hot-air balloons, hanging like baubles in the firmament. The fictional Horizon Festival has set up temples of its own: music stages, P.R.
It’s the best ten minutes you will spend with a game this year. You could mount a reasonable argument for stopping there. And, finally, after dipping low enough for its rear door to scrape the tarmac, the plane coughs up a dark-red Mercedes-AMG One, ready for a coastal run. Then a dart through the jungle, in a 1989 Porsche 911 Type 964, cruising through a blizzard of flamingos to a stop at the foot of a Mayan temple. Next, it’s back to the plane, which deposits a 2020 Corvette Stingray, in a delicious burnt orange, to race into the dry eye of a sandstorm. Moments later, we’re thundering down its slopes, as though we were surfing the choco-dusted froth of the world’s biggest cappuccino. Its maw opens, the day streams in, and up pops an instruction of surreal simplicity: “Press A to jump into the horizon.” A 2021 Ford Bronco, in bright yellow, slides out the plane and parachutes down onto the rim of an active volcano. Well, what about a cargo plane? Forza Horizon 5 is set in Mexico, and it starts in the skies above, in the belly of just such a beast. Not only did it feature dirt bikes with purple flares pinned to their exhausts it also accelerated through the seasons, whipping us through the snow and gloaming of an English winter into a rain-pricked spring. The third game had us hopping into a string of cars, taking in the diverse terrain of Australia, but the fourth is where things really picked up. The first two began in comparatively sedate fashion-a simple, pine-scented dash, in Colorado, at the wheel of an SRT Viper and another on the Côte d’Azur, piloting a 2014 Lamborghini Huracán the colour of sunlight. The beginning of a Forza Horizon game is a phenomenon that has, in recent years, grown to resemble the opening of a Bond movie.
