Forza Horizon 4 Preorders Tracking “Well Ahead” of Expectations
How has the response from consumers been in light of all this? According to Xbox marketing boss Aaron Greenberg in conversation with GamesIndustry.Biz, pre-orders are tracking “well ahead” of what Microsoft expected. Furthermore, they’re ahead even of 2016’s Forza Horizon 3.
“So our expectation is that Forza Horizon 4 is going to be the biggest and best-selling Forza game that we’ve ever launched,” Greenberg said. “Currently, our pre-order tracking is well ahead of where we want and tracking ahead of where we were with Forza Horizon 3. So the early indicators are really good. And that’s before you get into the fact that this title will be in Game Pass, which will allow it to reach another set of gamers who may never have played or bought the game.”
As it stands, Forza Horizon 4 could be the sole reason – at least in terms of upcoming heavyweights – to own Xbox Game Pass, which retails for $10 per month. Will servers be able to handle such a large influx of players? That remains to be seen, but thankfully the game is still playable offline. Physical and digital sales will also be interesting so we’ll see how it all pans out when Forza Horizon 4 launches on October 2nd for Xbox One and Windows 10 PC.

Going to pass on purchasing this one. I've bought all horizon games and I think I'm finally bored of them as I couldn't even finish the third. It's great to see them ahead of expectations though.

I love the fact they're doing these Xbox & Win10 releases now, I personally feel like that alone can help boost pre orders a ton. It's also on the Game Pass, meaning it will have a ton of players on release also.
