Forza Horizon 5 Speeds Onto PlayStation 5: Release Date Confirmed!
Following last month's announcement, Forza Horizon 5's PS5 arrival is officially confirmed! The Premium Edition launches April 25th for $99.99, with the standard edition following on April 29th.
This news, revealed on the official website, coincides with the announcement of a major update—Horizon Realms—arriving on all platforms April 25th. This update boasts four new vehicles, a redesigned Horizon Stadium racetrack, and a curated selection of beloved community environments from previous games.
As previously reported, the PS5 version will be feature-complete, mirroring the Xbox and PC versions. This includes all car packs and expansions, such as Hot Wheels and Rally Adventure.
Forza Horizon 5 joins Sea of Thieves and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny as Xbox exclusives making the leap to PlayStation. This move reflects a growing industry conversation about the viability of platform exclusivity, especially considering the escalating costs of game development and the potential for increased sales through broader accessibility.
Having awarded Forza Horizon 5 a perfect 10/10 upon its initial Xbox/PC release, IGN wholeheartedly recommends this title to PlayStation gamers. Our review hailed it as "the result of a racing studio at the peak of its craft and the best open-world racing game I’ve ever played."
