In an interview with Team VVV, Ralph Fulton revealed that Forza Horizon 3 has surpassed 10 million players worldwide. The latest iteration of Forza Horizon will soon be released and the previous milestone, the 9 million players goal, was broken in July 2018.
According to Ralph Fulton, Playground Games can learn from that enormous number of players in order to offer a better product with Forza Horizon 4. Playground Games can learn the game’s player types and styles, and confirms that this analysis had shaped Forza Horizon 4.
Forza Horizon 3 came out almost two years ago, on September 27th and initially suffered from major CPU issues. Playground Games and Turn10 dedicated their efforts in order to improve overall CPU scaling and released on May 9th, 2017, a performance patch that resolved the game’s CPU issues. Thankfully, Forza Horizon 4 does not suffer from its predecessor’s awful launch and performs incredibly well on the PC from the get-go.
Forza Horizon 4 features over over 450 cars, will support cross-play between Xbox and Windows 10, will feature a simplified chat system, and is currently scheduled for an October 2nd release!

Forza Horizon 4 will easily beat 10 million thanks to Game Pass – I bought 3 month of Game Pass for 3 usd on official MS Store
MS nearly every month do promotion like 2 months of access to GamePass for 2 usd. Those promotions are available to everyone on Xbox and PC. If someone already have active pass then he can cancel it (MS refund remaining part) and activate another 2-3 months access for 2-3 usd.
With so cheap access to Forza Horizon 4 via Game Pass this game will easily top FH3
Oh my God. Why are you always here advertising? Yes, I enjoy FH3, Yes, I’ll probably like FH4. No, I don’t want an xbox one. No, I don’t care about game pass. Sure it seems like a cool deal for some people. I’m sure its great for you. But honestly, nobody is coming here for a sales pitch. You should really just stop, calm down, and start acting like a normal person. Please. From what I understood, this was a site for people who love PC gaming. We aren’t a site that loves Microsoft, or any company, for that matter. So just read the articles, enjoy discussion, or just hover around. But just stop being a nuisance, and trying to advertise. I’m sure everyone would appreciate it and be more willing to listen to you if you stopped.
Console peasants are always sweating and desperate about one thing or another.
This Spector kid doesn’t have anything going on in his life. He wants your hate. Give him indifference.
I simply said that if FH3 (60 usd) have 10 million players.. then FH4 will be more like 25-30 million or more because it is cheap and anyone can play it for 1-2 usd
This will be most popular racing game ever. Low price is important. This is why Fortnite is more popular than PUBG.
I’m pretty sure you understand me but are choosing to ignore it. You were most certainly not “just saying” anything. You’re advertising. And I feel as though if DSOG isn’t getting paid to host this ad on their site, it may be time to remove it. So stop. Please.
They refuse to moderate anything here whatsoever, that’s why it’s riddled with racists and alt-right nutjobs.
I don’t care if there are racists or whatever, its not illegal to have an opinion, even if its somewhat bad. But having advertising on your website that you’re not getting paid to host is stupid.
Ahhh, the two over used words pinned on people just because you ideologically disagree with them. A lot of people don’t know what Alt-right is never mind what views they hold.
I really don’t want to talk about politics on a gaming site. You should stop, too. It gets just as annoying as Sp4ctr0.
I don’t know why John hasn’t banned Sp4ctr0 Spencer for his blatant spamming and advertising of one company’s products here.
Hopefully when the comment policy of the site gets reviewed again in the following months, we all can agree on banning on sight all these sort of trolls like sp4ctr0 and KIMthepiratefestish. I’d offer myself as moderator if needed.
I wouldn’t be surprised if everyone votes for no moderation again. Maybe there should be an option to ban obnoxious idiots on the next survey. I just feel as though they could make their points without being overly obnoxious. If Sp4ctr0 just calmed down he could possibly be a reasonable guy. He definitely shouldn’t be allowed to advertise. I wouldn’t advertise my Patreon or anything, because that’s just not right to do. Why can he advertise for Microsoft?
TBH I don’t even think he’s human. To me he’s an advertising machine. You’ll note that whenever he’s addressed he completely ignores what the other person said and just goes off to keep spewing his promotional BS. No mercy for these kind of trolls.
Well he’s an amazing A.I. then. He can actually address people to a certain extent.
Your shilling becomes more desperate day by day. Utter fail! ?
Amazing…….
Yes, I am being sarcastic.
Cars are a scam. You buy one and then they tell you that in order to actually drive it you need to put gas in it… forever.
Let me guess, you buy this game and then have to buy gas as a micro-transaction, like in real-life? SCAM. FAKE NEWS.
…
…
… what?
People are just lying through their teeth these days. Yesterday someone on the news claimed that dolphins are very smart. Well, if dolphins are so damn smart then why do they live in igloos?
Pretty good game actually, shame about the Windows Store.
We will see about Horizon 4, the setting is not as cool as Australia, and the seasons feature is cool I guess. But if is riddled with micro transactions then people should pass. And also Windows Store.
Forza Motorsport 7 was like a 110 GB install, wonder if this one will be similar.
Damn, not even sales, just “players”? After 2 whole years and out of 529 million Windows 10 and Xbone owners, that is all who played/shared/rented/borrowed it?
Hilarious thing is that Sony announced how many players played Detroit rather than announce the sales of the game, maybe they should announce how many people watched it on Youtube since that’s pretty much the same as playing it.
Well am still playing this from time to time on my PC and I do like it.
Will wait a bit for Horizon 4 cause I find these to be overpriced.
Seriously, a 100 dollars for the full game?
in that 10 million, how many are from PC? am pretty sure a fairly large number of PC audience has contributed to this milestone, if only other Studios followed this, & in another news… the latest Denuvo was just cracked!
More numbers that cant be confirmed by anyone else but devs. But who am I to not trust companies?
