Forza Horizon 4 Deluxe Edition is a revised version of Playground Games' popular racing adventure title. It comes with additional tracks and vehicles, which are rendered as gorgeous 3D models that almost look photorealistic. While it might have too much content for some gamers, those who are serious about racing titles will appreciate all that it has to offer.

Once players have seen everything that the game has to offer and unlocked all of the various additions, they'll be able to install various DLC packs that Forza Horizon 4 has to offer. It might take some time to get there, however, because many people will want to focus on completing challenges that are organized into a series of different seasons.

Drivers who have won a certain number of preliminary events will be given the option to compete in any of the four seasons that they choose. Once a season is selected, however, other events will become inaccessible until it's finished.

That gives the game something of a strat-sim style of gameplay without sacrificing too much from the actual driving. While it does include RPG elements, these take a backseat to the action. You shouldn't end up feeling like you're forced to do anything just to unlock certain items, but you'll more than likely appreciate the additional level of challenge that this provides.

Astute gamers might notice some big changes in the game's OST. The developers brought their drum and bass record license, so you'll be able to rock out to some heart-pounding beats while you trundle down the highway at more than 220MPH.
