It was mostly the twisting roads that affected me. While the concept is enjoyable and exciting, I found myself having fun but having that broken when disorientating moments happened. These are all present in Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels, and for accessibility, it feels a bit rough. Loop-the-loops, jumps, winding roads, track types. Hot Wheels is famed for its mind-bogglingly wild track layouts. Even as a rookie though, when I joined an online session the game had me hiring out a Hot Wheels car to be eligible to participate in the session and it was…very…very…fast. As I progressed, my status allows me to get into faster vehicles and take part in more intense races.Īlthough, the slower vehicles still caused enough disorientation to make me dread getting into a faster car. This little feature was nice because it eased me into the new track format instead of letting me go 220mph up a loop-the-loop and alienating myself from the gameplay. I was thrown into the Hot Wheels open-world track with a standard vehicle, all my high-performance cars locked away from me because I’m a rookie. There’s even a warning on the first boot of the DLC warning of the extreme driving and the accessibility features available. Really though, it depends on how these come into play. These can be useful for some players in combating motion sickness. There’s also a reticle that keeps one crosshair flat while the other shows your vehicle’s rotation. There is a new field of view option for Chase Cam and Far Chase Cam which are console firsts for the game. To kick things off, the new features are exclusive only to the Hot Wheels DLC - meaning if you’re playing the base game, you won’t see these.
As it happens, Forza Horizon 5 appears to have kept accessibility in mind judging from the press release that details what accessibility features are available specifically for this DLC.
I jumped into the new DLC -thanks to Xbox providing a code- ready to have a look and pondered whether to have a bucket on standby. I’m not one who is usually affected by motion sickness in video games, but seeing the trailer for the new Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels had me gritting my teeth with accessibility concerns.
