Forza Horizon 6 takes the top spot because it documents the most driving of any game on this list. The Steam page lists over 550 real-world cars and moves the Horizon Festival to Japan, with Tokyo City described as the largest urban area in any Forza Horizon game. The campaign starts you as a tourist, runs through the Horizon Invitational and progressively faster wristband tiers, and ends on Legend Island, and you can play it solo or in co-op. Outside the campaign there are customizable garages, a buildable Estate in a mountain valley, body kits and Forza Aero upgrades, and CoLab, an EventLab toolset that now supports building with friends anywhere on the map. Steam lists full controller support, adjustable difficulty and an AutoDrive option. The costs are hardware and price: the minimum spec asks for 16 GB of RAM, 167 GB of storage on an SSD and a broadband connection, and the Standard Edition is $69.99.
