Final Thoughts
I have always been big on racing games down to Need for speed most wanted, Forza Horizon 5, Tokyo Extreme racer, Mario Kart, Modnation, etc. So, to say I’ve been waiting for this is an understatement but where it is mostly set around in Tokyo and its totally not because I remember that one movie called “The fast and the furious Tokyo drift” either way I got my wish and I am so excited for when it comes out, I can’t wait to experience the world, the cars, race against friends, and even more than that.
For those of you also big on racing games or just cars in general you definitely should give this one a try and if you are still skeptical, then that’s fine just watch some videos on it or read some blogs on it like you are doing now. Rather it disappoints or not is entirely up to you but I feel this is going to be a fun and desirable one then again that could just be me. Still, give it a shot if it has peaked your interest as much as it has peaked mine who knows it will either surprise us or just knock us off the tracks and streets in general.
Also remember Forza Horizon 6 is not just set in Japan. It understands Japan.
From Tokyo’s scale to mountain roads, from car culture to community creativity, every system works together.
Your journey starts small. Your legend grows fast.
Japan awaits. Be safe and remember always be first, unless you are okay with being second best.
