Forza Horizon 4 rockets to the top of Steam charts upon debut

When it comes to open-world racing there aren't many titles better than Forza Horizon 4, something Steam players have discovered this week.

Despite being almost two-and-a-half years old now, Forza Horizon 4 remains a must-play and is the most recent release in the Forza franchise, something that looks unlikely to change thanks to the silence around Forza Motorsport.

After racing onto Steam, it quickly became the #1 racing title on the platform.

After dropping on Tuesday, a game that was already available to PC players via Microsoft Store has raced to the top of Steam's racing charts.

Peaking at around 14,000 concurrent players within its first 24 hours, paying a visit to the Horizon festival was more than twice as popular as pounding the tarmac in F1 2020.

There are also hundreds of cars, ranging from classics and trucks to hypercars that hit 200mph before you can blink.

There is also regular updates to challenge you and give you cars to unlock.
