      It had the one detail that matters to fans of the franchise: where it’s going to be set.

      Finally. We’ve been asking for this one since Horizon 1.

        Yeah, Horizon was one of the go to demonstrations for the Steam Deck when it first came out.

          OK that sounds promising. It’s not like EA which will break Linux on every game due to kernel level anti-cheat.

          Its still somewhat unusual for publishers to kill their own games leaving only the newest. Forza 5 is the only Forza game available, and its $60 outside of sales.

        I don’t really feel like spending money on a corporation, that doesn’t give a fuck about anything other than maximizing profits through cutting every corner imaginable

        What does any of that have to do with the original question? I mean you just described just about every for-profit company.

    I’ll probably catch a little flak, but it’s sad to see the Forza name live on only through Horizons now. Motorsport was a great game.

      Don’t worry you can just buy one of the older games in the series for less money, oh no they’re not for sale any more, guess they’re abandonware then.

        Ye but they get old after a while. Hope FH6 is going to be more its own game. I really felt like 5 was just a map pack for 4. But uh that’s a different conversation.

      Judging from the past releases, I’m betting:

      $60-70 (70-80€) Base Game

      $80-90 (90-100€) Deluxe Edition that includes like 20% of the total cars and like a week earlier access

      $100-120 (110-130€) Premium Edition that includes the Deluxe and future DLC

      Plus some pre-order exclusive cars and cosmetics

        Bro people are already jizzing their pants at the reveal this is set in Japan, you can get way more out of them than $120. Base game won’t be under $70 for sure.
        And also like 2 tiers of advanced access (maybe 2 and 5 days).
