I was able to drive from the beautiful skyscrapers of Surfers Paradise, to lush rainforests, get wet and wild across sandy beaches, and bounce around the Outback.

Bloody BeautĪustralia features a total of six different ecotypes and they’re all gorgeous. These races vary in what they offer, but I’ll never forget their experiences as taking on a jeep being towed by a helicopter or racing against speed boats has left a lasting impression on me. These milestones kept my eye on the prize throughout my experience as it tracked the amount of fans needed to open or expand a festival, or to take part in crazy Showcase races. Just like an RPG, you’ll earn fans fairly quickly in the early portions of the game, but the late game progression gets slow as it’ll take several races to earn enough to reach a milestone. The progression system is very gradual as you’re going to sink many hours into this game in order to earn enough fans to complete it. Let's just say that after playing Forza Horizon 3 for nearly a week, I'm kind of a big deal in the virtual world as I'm beloved by millions of digital people. I earned fans across nearly every activity in Horizon 3, and the larger my festivals, the more activities popped up all over the map within a particular region. Thankfully, the only way to improve your festival is by completing lots of races, stunts, and additional activities which is much better than having to sit behind a desk all day signing stacks of paperwork.įans play a huge role in Forza Horizon 3 as the only way you can open a new festival site or expand them is through the power of the people. From the start, the player is tasked with being in charge of festival locations, what kind of objectives can be carried out in races, and what kind abilities you want to unlock, among other things. Things appear to be going very well for the player in the Forza Horizon world as they now find themselves to be the boss of the entire festival, which has expanded to Australia in Forza Horizon 3.
