Forza Horizon 4 Gets New Update For PC and Xbox One

The Forza series is currently one of the most beloved racing game franchises. While Motorsport games are geared towards race simulation on professional race tracks competing with Gran Turismo, Horizon has a more arcade tone and allows gamers to get around on multiple roadways in the various cities covered in the games. The latest game in the line is the Forza Horizon 4, available on PC and Xbox One.

Now a new update has been released for it, bringing news and various fixes related to crossplay between the Xbox One and PC. The package upgrades the game version on the Xbox to 1.216.279.0 and on the PC to 1.216.279.2.
