Must Play Xbox Series X Racing Games

Although we have not yet completed Forza Horizon 5, we think this definitely a must play racing game for Xbox Series X. We are most impressed with the level of detail and the variety of scenery the game has to offer. The map is farely large, which makes exploring just as exciting as competing. A lot of the core features from Forza 4 made their way into this game, which is a plus. There are weather effects in this game, but they do not seem to rotate weekly, as was the case in Forza 4. We look forward to continuing the game and finishing out the Horizon Festival with a bang. We definitely recommend this game to all racers look to play a fun racing game on Xbox Series X.

Forza Horizon 4 has a vast open world with dynamic weather effects that can mess with your driving in interesting ways. The changing seasons also create new routes and paths for the player to explore, with some rewards only accessible during certain seasons. The graphics are exquisite, from the interior of the car to the exterior and the scenery. With over 750 licened cars, there is a massive selection of vehicles for players to play with. Different sections of the map are built for different types of vehicles, so picking the fasted, most expensive car isn’t always a winning formula. We loved Forza Horizon 4 on Xbox One and with the new optimizations, Forza Horizon 4 makes a great Xbox Series X racing game as well.

Ride 4 has received a much needed makeover and the efforts of the developers seem to have paid off. Featuring new dynamic weather, day and night modes, remodeled bikes and more, this game makes a great addition to any simulation racing fan’s collection. The A.I. system learns and adapts to the players skills. New game management features let the racer controller everything from tire pressure to fuel consumption. All these features, mixed with realistic bikes and environments make this an all around awesome simulation game. We recommend Ride 4 to any one who enjoys realism in their Xbox Series X racing game.

The track and car selection in Hot Wheels Unleashed offers a nice variety. The tracks can be challenging at times, although some stretches seem to lack excitement. The cars have a good balance of attributes, to fit many racing styles. We really enjoy the toy / arcade feeling, which offers a fast-paced, thrilling experience you would expect from Hot Wheels. The steering can feel stiff at times, but this makes pulling off a drift or stunt even more rewarding. If you love arcade style games, Hot Wheels Unleashed for Xbox Series X won’t disappoint.

The World Rally Championship 10 is a well-rounded rally racing game that provides players with an exciting and thrilling experience. The graphics are exceptionally realistic, the gameplay is fast-paced and exhilarating, and the physics feels so real you can't help but get caught up in the excitement of it all. Players have a wide variety of rally cars to choose from, from classic cars to modern ones so there's always something for everyone. A common complaint is that WRC 10 hasn't made any noticeable improvements from previous games and some issues have been carried over. Despite its flaws, WRC 10 is still a top racing game to play on Xbox Series X.
