PC had it all and that’s exactly the experience I wanted from Forza Horizon 4, so I built a rig capable of just that, but two years since the game first launched and we have the Xbox Series X doing it all. Combined with a bunch of the higher-end graphical settings also being disabled in 60FPS, it just wasn’t ideal. The 60FPS option was a big deal, but it was also a huge blow to 4K TV owners that it locked to 1080p. Looking back, neither of the performance modes on Xbox One X were satisfactory. I feel like I had stopped appreciating that until now. The entire ambience of the game is alive, and it soaks you in when playing at the visual fidelity offered by the Xbox Series X. The rip-roaring engine noises as cars whistled past me in races felt thrilling yet also terrifying, but it even extends beyond that too. My TV supports its own form of Dolby Atmos too, so not only did the cars look great, but they also sounded the part. If you’ve got a display capable of outputting this with HDR10, then you’re in for a treat. ![]() It’s all done within a manner of seconds.įorza Horizon 4 is more beautiful on console than ever before, especially with its 4K, 60FPS lock on Xbox Series X. The loading times feel almost non-existent, whether you’re booting into the game, fast-travelling around the map, changing into a different car, starting up a new race event or switching between the mainland and one of the game’s expansion locales – Fortune Island or LEGO Speed Champions. ![]() It’s mind-boggling to think a $499 console is capable of the same performance as a high-end PC. Yet despite that, I was still impressed by what the Xbox Series X delivered. It's the ultimate Forza Horizon 4 experience at my fingertips. Because my rig supports a RTX 2080 Super, I also run the game maxed out with all the visual flourishes. I’ve become fully accustomed to 60FPS and the super-fast loading times it provides thanks to being installed on a M2 SSD. I’ve been playing the game exclusively on PC for a year now. Before I share my impressions, let me give you some backstory. Where I have extensively tested the new version of Forza Horizon 4 is on the Xbox Series X, the faster, more powerful sibling of the family. ![]()
