Japan is a great choice for Playground Games’ latest, and the open world they’ve built around it is genuinely stunning. For someone who bounces off racing games, Horizon has always been the exception: the driving model sits firmly in the “feels brilliant, not very realistic” zone, and that’s the whole appeal. FH6 delivers another enormous, content-stuffed festival, and if you can meet it on those terms, it’s an easy good time. The formula is undeniably wearing familiar grooves though, and critics who’ve lived with every entry likely feel it more than I do - but as a tourist, it’s a blast.

I’m very bad at & never really liked driving games, but this is fun. Arcadey, but lots of depth and customisation for those interested. The open world approach is super cool, and there’s lots to do.
