Forza Horizon 5 Comes to PlayStation 5 in Spring 2025
With nearly 900 cars available in the game, over 40 thematic game updates, two expansions, and so much more content, our team is excited to announce that this spring, PlayStation 5 players will be able to explore Mexico's beautiful roads and experience the Horizon Festival for the first time as we are officially launching Forza Horizon 5 on PS5.
The PlayStation 5 version of Forza Horizon 5, developed by Panic Button in partnership with Turn 10 Studios and Playground Games, will have the same content as the Xbox and PC releases of the game. Previously released Car Packs, as well as the Hot Wheels and Rally Adventure expansions, will also be available for purchase.
We are excited to see the Forza Horizon 5 community grow with new players on PS5, and we can't wait to see the creativity and skill these new creators, builders, and racers will bring to our vibrant community.
In addition to bringing Forza Horizon 5 to PS5, we're working on a special new free content update for all platforms, Horizon Realms. Realms will give players the chance to explore a curated collection of some of the community's favorite previously released Evolving Worlds, alongside some other surprises. Stay tuned to our channels for more details soon.
Four cars drive through the neon airfield including the silver 2021 Rimac Nevera, the red 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing, the blue 2021 Lexus LC 500 and the blue 2022 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing.
Wishlist Forza Horizon 5 on the PlayStation Store today to stay informed about updates and release times. If you already own the game on another platform, share the news with your friends in the PS5 community and tell them to get ready to join your convoys as cross-play will be available for all Forza Horizon 5 players across Xbox consoles, PC and PS5.
We look forward to welcoming new players to the Horizon Festival, and we are sure Forza Horizon 5 veterans will share their experience, tips, and tricks to make beginners feel right at home as they start their adventures.

But considering Sony doesn't have any arcade racing games anymore, this is good news for PlayStation gamers. The days of first party games are not gone, but the days of exclusives pretty much are. It's just not cost-effective anymore.
But I fear that this will create a vacuum since gamers and publishers will think that there is no reason to publish anything on Xbox.
Another thing, I feel bad for Phill since everyone is blaming him, but I'm pretty sure that such decision cannot be made by himself and instead was forced by Nadella.
They could and should do a bit of exclusivity but make sure to announce such plans.
IMHO, they should release their games as follows:
1- Launch on Xbox.
2- Six months after on PC (Xbox and Steam)and GamePass. Even though, GamePass should or could be on step one.
3- 9 to 12 months after, Sony and Nintendo.
Lastly, more platforms, more money for publishers.
Lets see how this plays out.
FH5 on PC is synonymous with cheating. Again draw your own conclusions.
For MS this makes much more sense, software is where the profits are, unless you are named nintendo. Release your software on other people's hardware, reap int he profits, leave the hardware support to another suck....I mean entrepreneurial group.
Realistically, the xbox series, the xbone, and the OG xbox were all massive failures sales wise. ONLY the xbox 360 was a sales success, and that is more due to sony deciding to take the stupid pill for half a decade.I dont feel bad for Phil at all. The man was born with a foot in his mouth and has perpetually fought every attempt to remove it.
Microsoft should stick to their strengths and sell fridges. That has a purpose. Not smartphones or gaming consoles. Not selling DLC for age of empires. Just sell fridges - what we need
