Forza Horizon 4 is a success: the new racing game of the Forza series sold more quickly than ever and has positioned itself in third place in the UK, preceded only by FIFA 19 and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. Here are the words of Harvey Eagle of the English division of Xbox:

“We’re thrilled that Forza Horizon 4 has been so well received by gamers across the UK. Set in beautiful, historic Britain and made by British studio Playground Games, Forza Horizon 4 is the fastest-ever selling game of the Forza Horizon series in the UK according to the latest GfK data. We’re also seeing a huge uplift in Xbox Game Pass subscriptions and engagement. These achievements are a testament to the craft and ambition of the latest release of the Forza franchise, the world’s biggest racing IP.”

Also excellent results for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey that conquers the second step of the podium ranking of the best-selling games last week in the UK, however, the disclosed data indicate that compared to Origins sales in physical format have fallen by 26%. FIFA 19 remains first in the standings, while Marvel’s Spider-Man drops to fourth place, followed by Super Mario Party for Nintendo Switch.
