Forza Horizon 6 arrived on May 19 for PC and Xbox, and Logitech G is capitalizing on the timing with a substantial deal on racing hardware. The gaming peripheral maker is bundling its G29 or G920 racing wheel, pedals, a Driving Force Shifter, and a pair of socks for $199.98 after shipping is waived, representing a 48% savings on the combined retail price.
All items ship new with a 2-year warranty. To unlock the discount, buyers need to add all three components to their cart to see the final price.
The G29 works with PlayStation 5 and PC, while the G920 is designed for Xbox and PC. Before this promotion, these wheels were already recognized as the strongest options in the sub-$200 bracket, with solid alternatives rarely available below $300.
Both models feature a hand-stitched leather steering wheel with 900 degrees of rotation, a metal base reinforced with steel ball bearings, and dual-motor force feedback that communicates road texture and impact back to the driver's hands. The pressure-sensitive pedals and stainless shifter round out the mechanical package. The force feedback quality is notably strong for the price point, though jumping to a direct-drive or belt-driven wheel like Logitech's $1,000 G Pro would be required to experience a meaningful step up in realism.
PC players considering which model to pick up should note a meaningful difference between the two. The G29 includes LED shift lights on the wheel's spokes that illuminate progressively as engine RPM climbs in-game, providing visual feedback without taking eyes off the road. It also adds a customizable rotary knob for adjusting functions like traction control, brake bias, or differential settings on the fly. The G920 does not include these features.
Forza Horizon 6 itself has earned strong critical reception. The open-world racing title launched with 550 vehicles available for customization and tuning, with the action spread across Japan's varied terrain from Alpine mountain passes to Tokyo's urban expressways. The game includes dozens of single-player and online events, plus the return of Eliminator, a battle royale mode that strips racing to its competitive core.
For players still relying on a standard controller, this bundle represents a significant entry point into wheel-based racing. The hardware gap between a gamepad and a proper steering wheel setup changes how racing sims feel and play, adding a layer of physical feedback that transforms precision driving from button-prompt execution into something closer to actual vehicle control.
Author Emily Chen: "This is exactly when you upgrade, when both the game and the hardware deal hit at the same moment."
