“Forza Horizon 6 is another excellent entry in an excellent series, from an excellent developer. Part of me wants more than that, but I've no idea how that would work.”

“There are many RPG titles hitting the market, making it important that new releases bring interesting new features. Starbites is a competent game, with charismatic visuals and fun gameplay mechanics. The story is a bit convoluted, but delivers an adventure interesting enough to be explored to the end, especially in terms of the characters. The combat is quite good, with mostly traditional and well-implemented options. The Driver's High feature works in a limited way, serving more as an extra mechanic than a major innovation. It illustrates the game as a whole: good ideas and competent basic implementation (sometimes a bit slow), but without anything particularly noteworthy. In the end, it's a good choice, especially for RPG fans.”

“Forza Horizon 6 is, quite simply, the biggest and most ambitious instalment in the series to date, and in my opinion, it recaptures the essence of the fourth game in the series. Its spectacular setting, a jaw-dropping range of cars and a technical standard that borders on photorealism also establish it as the graphical benchmark for the current generation of consoles”

“Starbites is that JRPG that stays true to its promise, delivering exactly what is on the tin. Its turn-based gameplay borrows some formulas and mechanics from other JRPGs, which may feel uninspired to some fans but can be a novelty to others.”

“Vultures – Scavengers of Death, my dear friends, was a pleasant surprise and proof that, from time to time, it's worth trying some crazy mixes to see what happens. Even though it has a slip-up here and there, I feel that the title managed to show what it came for and blend well the feelings of the two styles it tried to implement.”

“Forza Horizon 6 doesn't just continue the legacy of the series: it relaunches it with the confidence of those who know they're the absolute benchmark for open-world racing. It's an installment that aims to amaze from the very first mile, pushing the boundaries of what's possible. Playground Games' title offers virtually endless content, with gameplay progression that's still well-balanced. All of this is set in a Japan recreated with unconditional love and incredible attention to detail. Every road echoes the Japanese terrain, offering views of the city and nature that, with the changing seasons, reveal completely different nuances.”

“If what you come to Horizon for is a space to live out your fantasies of collecting cars and driving them around stunning, real-world-inspired locations, there is simply no game that does it better. But if you wanted a little more from Forza Horizon 6; a bit of an edge or some rewarding friction, you should look elsewhere.”

“When it wasn't the bugs and performance doing it, it was the repetitive, boring dungeons that nearly had me cast aside my controller. Sadly, Starbites neither aims high enough to get anywhere near the stars, nor does it have enough firepower to even breach the atmosphere. If you do somehow feel compelled to play it, leave the Switch version buried in the desert where it belongs.”

“There are plenty of enjoyable moments involving the character interactions or when the combat and exploration get into a good rhythm, but it never really takes that extra step needed to stick in the memory. Nonetheless, it’s an enjoyable enough way to spend the time, and there’s a strong base for IKINAGAMES to be able to build upon going forward.”

“Forza Horizon 6 delivers the best open-world racing experience in the franchise thanks to its stunning recreation of Japan, incredible visuals, and fantastic driving feel. Tokyo and the massive map are packed with detail and rewarding exploration. While the campaign formula feels familiar and the soundtrack misses a bigger Japanese identity, Playground Games still crafted the strongest Horizon game to date.”

“Unfortunately, Rumbral was a bit of a disappointment for me. I don’t mind a short game as long as it’s impactful for the small time I’m in it. However, on almost all accounts it falls short. There is a great idea here with the weird dimension shifting neon pink liquid, but it’s never fleshed out. There isn’t enough creative puzzles, gameplay, or story that would make me think about this game after I have beaten it.”

“Forza Horizon 5 was already an exceptional racing game, but Forza Horizon 6 takes everything up a notch to deliver an even more engaging, entertaining and all-encompassing experience. There's an absolute wealth of racing, exploring and collecting to do here, and that's before the inevitable live-service updates start adding even more content. Few games are as essential as this.”

“Forza Horizon 6 proves that it is not just a new entry in a successful series but rather the strongest statement for racing games this generation, setting a new standard in the industry. Through moving the festival to the beautiful Japanese lands, Playground Games succeeded in delivering a perfect mix between the classic direct progression system and innovation in the side modes. And although the graphical leap may not be revolutionary by the standards of previous generations, the attention to graphical details and the strong sound engineering make driving any car in the streets of Japan a unique unforgettable experience.”
