    Forza Horizon 5 is probably my favourite racing game ever I rarely ever delve into the genre but the game is just so much fun to look at and play it's truly a marvel in gaming. Throw in an awesome soundtrack, interesting characters and a decent story this has to be my game of the year for 2021 absolutely phenomenal

    For me, the BEST OpenWorld Racer !! FH4 is almost similar good...but just almost. If you love to drive and hang around with your buddies in a WONDERFUL crafted world -> you probably won't regret it.

    Bringing in some actual review instead of review bombing: I didn't thought that FH4 had so much space for improvement, but looks like it did! FH5 brings in a big, diverse map, improved gameplay on cars, improved graphics, new ways to unlock stuff (aka - more stuff to do) and some new things to do. I mean, for your first playthrough, it's a racing game I'd recommend 100%.

    Talking about the "endgame", or, "what can I do after I finish the story thingy"... well... there's nothing much aside from repeating races or racing online, where you find out cars are usually broken and way too fast for their class. Or that the developer usually takes a long time to fix this stuff.

    But my review is still for the "go and finish", endgame is just a "warning" for those who stay

First of all the engine and exhaust sounds for the cars have been improved so drastically. The driving mechanics are also much improved and feels a little but more like forza motorsport, which is a good thing. Going fast in this game actually feels like you are going fast unlike in horizon 4 where going 200 mph and 100 mph felt exactly the same. Also the map is much better than horizon 4s boring map of the UK. Horizon 5’s Mexico is much more varied in terms of environment and it looks a hell of a lot better too. The game overall is nearly flawless, however there are issues that need to be fixed asap. The biggest issue at the moment is the connection issues this game keeps having. There are also a lot of glitches and bugs in the game that need to be fixed. Expand

    Love the game. Runs great on my PC at extreme settings. The detail in the cars and landscapes is amazing. The story is more geared toward pushing you into various tasks and races, which isn’t the most engaging, but I’m an RPG/MMO guy, so this is probably sufficient for a racer. The only thing lacking is the character models, but they are less of a fixture than the cars and terrain. Still aLove the game. Runs great on my PC at extreme settings.

    One thing to watch out for is that the game servers are overloaded with players. Also Win Defenders ransom ware otection as well as steam screen share can *sometimes crash it*. It happened to me once and then I could use Discord screen share normally, but some people are less lucky. Anyways it's not the endof the world, because those problems are fixable/will be fixed soon enough. Anyways of you are on the fence of getting or getting the game pass for it, do it. It's worth it.

    Fantastic game with the right amount of technical tuning. You can just slap on the best modifications to boost your stats but that doesn't mean you're going to keep it on the track, let alone win the race. You can do that and get away

    Fantastic game with the right amount of technical tuning. You can just slap on the best modifications to boost your stats but that doesn't mean you're going to keep it on the track, let alone win the race. You can do that and get away with it for the most part on some cars, but if you want to top leader boards, you need fine-tuning.

    Despite being review bombed because of launch technical issue for some people. I've had 1 issue, solved it by turning off my power management program, EVGA precision. No problems since.

    The game has a wide variety of cars that you can either buy or win in a slot machine-type game. You can get some pretty amazing cars from the start. If the idea of a game to you is to have the fastest car that can smoke anything on normal difficulty, this game isn't for you. If you like collecting and racing, trying to 100% a large map with tons of content. If you like trying out different cars to see which one suits you, instead of chasing stat scores, then this game is for you.

    It's really nice to see Xbox finally winning again (and PC wins anyway, because PC gets all Xbox and Playstation games). But Forza Horizon is amazing racing game, one of the best, if not the best. It has DeLorean, what else do you want? Amazing graphics, even better than FH4. Open World makes Forza stand out from all the other racing games. Also, over 530 cars.

Halo Infinite Multiplayer is amazing and it's easily best shooter of 2021, both BF and COD look like jokes compared to it. Can't wait for Halo campaign in December. Good times! Expand

    Lmao Playstation losers have nothing to play for next 3 months, so they are trying to review bomb this masterpiece. Well too bad, because it's not working. It had over 8 million players already on it's first week. Xbox wins. The end.

    FH5 is best driving game of all time, there's no competition even. Others aren't doing anything that's better than this.

    The map is very attractive for me and cruising around the forests and mountains has an amazing rhythmic feel to it which I enjoy. Really the best game I tried on my series X

    By far the best casual car game. Amazing graphics, especially in 4k on extreme settings. Great detailed map with many nice roads and a good amount of different vehicles. The exhaust sounds could still be improved a little, but everything else is extremely well done.

    Fantastic graphics, amazing landscapes, and if you spend some time tweaking the graphics settings you can get a lot out from it. And of course, the gameplay slaps as always. Laptop ryzen 7 5800 HS, rtx 3060 ti

    Great game. Just ignore all the negative reviews, these are just Playstation losers who are angry because nobody likes their garbage last of us part 2, but everyone loves and Forza Horizon 5 (over 8 million players on first week) and Halo Infinite Multiplayer is most popular shooter of 2021 and also seems to have amazing story. Playstation has literally zero games until February 18, 2022.Great game.

    One of the best (if not best) racing video games of all time. Phenomenal graphics (yes it actually looks better than 4). Over 500 solid cars. DeLorean, i think it even has this Knight Rider car, lots of Lambos, etc. Amazing huge map to drive around and have fun, story missions are nothing special, but they are there, if you get bored of driving around, good music (Hospital Records).

    I'm not a fan of racing game and this one sucked me in for 75 hours up to now. I'm impressed by the overall quality of the game, the racing engine is fun and the amount of stuff to do is overwhelming.
    The only point I have is that when you want to play multiplayer races, you only have the option of entering races of 5 consecutive rounds. I would have liked to be able to register to single

    Other than that point, I consider this game a perfect racing game.

    One of the best racing games to date!! Won 3 game of the year award which shows why it should have been nominated for the game of the year.

    Just ignore negative reviews, these are mostly people with weak computers or even worse, Sony fanboys. If you like car games, this might be one of the best, if not THE best. Stunning visuals, huge open world with varied locations, nice.

    The graphics, lighting and weather effects are some of the best we've seen in a racing game, but of course it's all about the cars. Although this is an arcade racer that does not focus on realism but rather on short and fast action, the cars behave truthfully and react differently whether you are driving on a track, on the street or off road. The controls have been kept simple, making the game accessible to just about anyone. Altogether, this makes Forza Horizon 5 the most fun racing game of the moment.

    Forza Horizon 5 still is a great racing game, but there’s no denying that the series is in a torpor-like state. It’s obvious that Playground is afraid not only to innovate, but to make any sort of significant change to a successful formula. [Issue#257, p.64]

    I don't think there's a motoring enthusiast who won't be excited about Forza Horizon 5, with a slight caveat for those who have had their fill of Forza Horizon 4 and might want more of the same - though honestly, I can't imagine how the formula could be improved upon, which in the arcade driving department is bordering on perfection. It promises and delivers an incomparably customizable driving experience, with dream-cars, in breathtaking landscapes.
