About the Game

Your family's once-famous ranch has fallen into decline.

Now it's on you to raise the ultimate racehorse, outrun a greedy rival, and bring the glory back.

You're not in the stands. You're in the saddle.

•     Ride as jockey yourself — or hire a pro and call the shots.

•     Read the track and your rivals to find the winning line.

•     Race the World Tour across iconic cities worldwide.

•     Climb the global rankings to the Hall of Fame.

Your ranch, your rules — explore a living open world.

•     Roam open pastures, deep forests, and sunlit beaches.

•     Raise sheep and cattle — and fend off wild predators.

•     Explore hidden forests and dig up buried treasure.

•     Cast a line off the pier at sunset.

Great racehorses aren’t born — they’re made.

•     Breed and tame horses with unique bloodlines and traits.

•     Train across flat tracks, hills, and obstacle courses.

•     Unlock hidden potential out in the wild.

•     Gear up to customize your horse and boost its stats.
