Rev your engines for Forza Horizon 3, Playground Games’ 2016 open-world racing titan that roared onto Xbox One and Windows 10 on September 27, 2016, with Turn 10 Studios riding shotgun. This isn’t just a game—it’s a full-throttle festival where you’re the boss of Horizon Australia, tearing through a fictional Outback with over 350 cars to command. With more than 2.5 million copies sold by 2017 and a legacy that still revs in 2025, Forza Horizon 3 is an arcade-racing dream that’ll leave you floored!
Take the wheel of Lambos, buggies, or Aussie classics—tune ‘em, paint ‘em, and blast through jungles, deserts, and Gold Coast skylines in a map twice the size of Horizon 2. Race, drift, or stunt your way to fans—Danger Sign jumps, convoys, and showcases against zeppelins or speedboats crank the chaos. Hire your mates’ Drivatars to rack up cred, tweak events with Horizon Blueprint, and dive into four-player co-op or Auction House trades. Two DLCs—Hot Wheels with its neon loops and Blizzard Mountain with icy peaks—pile on the thrills, all in glorious 4K HDR on Xbox One X or unlocked PC frames.
The vibe? Sun-soaked freedom meets car-culture mania—think roaring V8s, technicolor skies (crafted from real Aussie HDR shoots), and a banging OST across eight stations. You’re not just a racer—you’re building the ultimate festival, chasing fans over raw, rugged terrain. Critics (91 on Metacritic) and fans adored its scope—though it hit “End of Life” in 2020, it’s still playable via disc or digital ownership, backward-compatible on Xbox Series X|S. Forza Horizon 3 dares you to rule the road—punch it and make Australia yours!
