Forza Horizon 3 PC System Requirements
Last update: 17 October 2016
As of today, Forza Horizon 3 doesn't ravish us either with stability, or optimization. The key problems have been described in the Technical Aspects and Problems chapter. Sometimes, the game may slow down in cities and towns, but works fluently in the country. Large numbers of cars in night races can also be problematic when it comes to optimization - a large number of lights, dust, and smoke can seriously slow down the game in certain moments. Windows 10 with Anniversary Update is required to play the game.
The guide was created using 1.0.10.2. version.
Game Modes
Singleplayer: Yes
