5 Best Car Racing Games for PC

Forza Horizon: 3

#2 Shift 2: Unleashed

Why is Shift 2 so good? You can only understand that if you stop using the exterior cameras. Don't bother with those, leave them alone and enjoy the cockpit view. Play the game as if you are driving a real car, the camera behind the windscreen, head tilting as your car makes a turn, finger pressing harder against the steering wheel - That is amazing.

The cockpit experience of Shift 2: Unleashed is unparalleled. Don't play as the car. Shift 2 offers you to play as the driver.

From the texture of driver's gloves to the flying dirt, the cockpit experience in unmatched. Shift 2 has a better cockpit design than any other car racing game and the best part is you play as the driver, sit in front of your screen as if you are staring through the windscreen. You actually DRIVE the car, not just play with it.

#1 Forza Horizon 3

Honestly, Forza Horizon 3's set up is not a major leap over other franchises such as Need for Speed or DiRT. Most of those franchise make sure you have good racing experience and so does Forza.

You're placed on a large open-world map, Australia. Everyone gathers up at one big music and car festival. The only difference is this time, you are in-charge of the event, you need to race to build up fans and expand the event. The future of the event depends on you.

This is new, we have played as characters where we had to save the world and this is just an event. Don't even think that. Another great part of the racing game, the game brings you different tracks all at one place. You can race in coastal track, city, forest, and even outback areas. The amazing open world is waiting for you to race through.
