Forza Horizon 4 is an open worldracing video game developed by Playground Games and published by Microsoft Studios.[ It was released on 2 October 2018 on Xbox One and Microsoft Windows after being announced at Xbox’sE3 2018 conference. The game is set in a fictionalised representation of the United Kingdom. It is the fourth Forza Horizon title and eleventh instalment in the Forza series. The game is noted for its introduction of changing seasons to the series.

Forza Horizon 4 is a racing video game set in an open world environment based in a fictional representation of the United Kingdom, in a region that includes condensed representations of Edinburgh, the Lake District(including Derwentwater), and the Cotswolds (including Broadway), among others, and features over 420 licensed cars. The game features a route creator which enables players to create their own races.[ The game takes place in a synchronised shared world, compared to the AI-driven Drivatars from its predecessors, with each server supporting up to 72 players. The game is also playable in offline mode.[

Players have the opportunity to buy in-game houses which unlock new items, cars and game-play perks.[ The game features a dynamic weather system that also depicts the change of seasons. The environment in the world will change depending on the season: for example, lakes will freeze over in winter and allow players the ability to explore regions of the game world that would be inaccessible during all the other seasons.[ The seasons are fixed across the game’s servers, meaning that all players will experience the same conditions at the same time. After completing a prologue series of events which introduce players to all four seasons, the shared-world seasons will change every week,[ with the changes happening on Thursdays at 2:30 PM GMT.[ The season changes are forewarned to players in the game with a countdown clock, which, when finished, will trigger a short cinematic cutscene showing the previous season changing to the new one, although the cinematic will be delayed for players who are in the middle of an event or activity.[

Playground Games have also announced plans for two chapters of downloadable content for the game.[ The first of these, Fortune Island, was released in December 2018. It includes a new map, a range of additional cars and adds extreme weather conditions to the game. Two car packs have also been released as of 26 November 2018, one including cars from the James Bond films, the other being a collection of Formula DRIFT cars and Fortune Island, presenting Lamborghini Urus, 2018 BMW M5 in an new action map with extreme climatology

Owing to licensing issues, vehicles from Mitsubishi and Toyota (including Lexus marque with the exception of some offroad racing and pre-customized trucks and Subaru BRZ) are not presented in the game wich is a shame in my opinion beacusa the Mk4 Toyota Supra was my favourite car in the previous game(Forza Horizon 3).

Forza Horizon 4 is set to launch on both Xbox One and Windows 10 with Play Anywhere support on October 2, 2018. Folks who buy the Ultimate Edition can begin playing early, though, beginning on September 28.

The Ultimate Edition costs $99.99 but besides early play time also includes the full regular game, Car Pass, VIP membership, the Day One car pack and two expansion packs when they’re released. The expansions are due to launch in December 2018 and early 2019.

Also available is the Deluxe Edition which includes the Car Pass and a special Formula Drift Car Pack and will cost $79.99. This version is only available as a digital download.

The standard edition will only include the base game for $59.99 and will be available in both digital and physical forms alongside the Ultimate Edition.

Microsoft Windows and Xbox One versions were also revealed.[ On August 21, 2017, Koei Tecmo America confirmed that Attack on Titan 2 has been set for a 2018 release.

The game was published by Koei Tecmo and developed by Omega Force, and was first announced at Gamescom.] A new trailer was unveiled on November 6, 2015, in addition to details about the Collector’s Edition. It was released for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Vita in Japan.[ Subsequent versions for Xbox One and Microsoft Windows were announced following its Western announcement by Koei Tecmo.[ Initially the English voice cast were going to recorded dialogue, however the budget would not allow for this.

Attack on Titan sold approximately 150,682 copies in its first week in Japan, outselling Street Fighter V during that week.[As of April 28, Koei Tecmo announced it had sold 280,000 copies in total in Japan. nAs of Koei Tecmo’s 2016/17 FY report, the game has sold in 350,000 copies in the West and a cumulative 700,000 copies worldwide. [

Anime Lore

The game retells key moments from the Attack on Titan manga (1 through 19-), in addition to new scenarios involving the key characters.

In 845, when Eren was just 10 years old, the “Colossal Titan” suddenly appeared. Large enough to breach the Wall, it allowed other Titans to rampage through the city. One of them ate Carla, Eren’s mother. With the so-called “Armored Titan” now preventing access, Wall Maria was abandoned and humanity were forced to fall back to Wall Rose. Having lost his family, his home and his dreams, Eren swore revenge on the Titans. Aiming to become a member of the Scout Regiment, he joined the “104th Cadet Corps.”

Five years after Eren enlisted, the “Colossal Titan” suddenly appeared again. Eren tried to fight it alone but failed to defeat it. He returned to headquarters and then takes a squad out himself, but the mission was a failure with Eren suffering a terrible injury to his leg and many soldiers being killed. When Armin was about to be eaten by a Titan, Eren sacrifices his life to save him. Immediately before the Trost District Wall was destroyed by the Colossal Titan, elite members of the Scout Regiment were on a mission outside the Wall. The principle role of the Scout Regiment was to scout beyond the Wall, seeking a way to take back Wall Maria which was lost 5 years previously. Setting up supply bases in destroyed towns and villages, they sought to secure a route for a large force to make their way to the Shiganshina District, where the Wall was destroyed. Fighting with the Titans outside the wall as they go, they sought to secure the route while making new discoveries along the way.

The brave resistance offered by the Garrison Regiment, combined with the return of the Scout Regiment, was enough to keep Wall Rose safe from the Titans. Within the Walls, however, the same chaos descended as was experienced when Wall Maria was lost 5 years previously. Not only has the Colossal Titan attacked humanity again, but the damaged Wall has been repaired – unbelievably – by the “power of the Titans.” Is Eren an ally for humanity or just another enemy? As the debate continues within the Walls, the Scout Regiment – newly joined by Eren – begin their 57th mission to the outside world

The game’s visuals matches that of the anime series and it features one player fighting multiple enemies. The 3D Maneuvering Gear can be used to ascend to high areas.

The game features ten playable characters. Initially, only three can be selected. But as players progress through Attack (story) mode, more characters are unlocked.

  • Eren Jaeger
  • Mikasa Ackerman
  • Armin Arlert
  • Jean Kirschtein
  • Connie Springer
  • Sasha Braus
  • Krista Lenz
  • Levi
  • Zoë Hanji
  • Erwin Smith
