Forza Horizon 6 has been one of the top sellers on Steam since early April and it's not even out yet. As of April 15 it had reportedly been pre-purchased more than 500,000 times, and that's likely to have nearly doubled since, considering how steadfastly it has hovered around the top of Steam's weekly revenue charts.
