Forza Horizon 5: PS5 Launch Confirmed for April

Get ready to hit the gas! Forza Horizon 5 roars onto PlayStation 5 on April 25th, with the Premium Edition launching first. Everyone else can join the fun starting April 29th. This confirmation comes directly from the official website, alongside exciting news of a major update.

Arriving on April 25th across all platforms, the "Horizon Realms" update delivers four new cars and a revamped Horizon Stadium racetrack layout. Plus, get ready to revisit beloved community-favorite environments from past Forza Horizon titles!

As previously announced, the PS5 version will be a complete experience, mirroring the Xbox and PC versions. This means all content, including Car Packs and the Hot Wheels and Rally Adventure expansions, will be available.

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 exclusives in the face of escalating development costs and the potential for limited sales.

We awarded Forza Horizon 5 a perfect 10/10 on its initial Xbox/PC release, hailing 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." PlayStation owners, prepare for an unforgettable driving experience!
