Forza Motorsport 7 review: another expertly engineered and polished drive

The latest in the racing game franchise is as confident and accomplished as its predecessors, and should appeal to aficionados as much as beginners

There are some driving games so convincing and enthralling that, after an intense play session, you find yourself instinctively straight-lining the local mini roundabout in order to nestle into the slipstream of a septuagenarian's Toyota Aygo during your weekend supermarket run. Forza Motorsport 7 is now one of those games.

Presumably conscious that key aspects of its franchise have been lapped by rivals Gran Turismo and Project Cars, developer Turn 10 has built carefully on the well-received Forza 6: 700-plus vehicles, 32 racing locations, endless racing conditions due to the new dynamic weather system - these stats are just the start of it.
