    For me there is not a real perfect game, but if there is a game close to that description is this one, the love an passion that playground games has put in this game just make me love this industry even more, after playing an aproximate of 20 hours I can make an opinion about it. The sensation with headphones and a series X is just out of this world. Highly recommend it.

    Absolutely great game, exceeded my expectations, is many times better than FH4. The only problem I have discovered so far is that after approx. after two hours of playing, my frame per second start to fall, so I have to restart the game. As for the drivatars, setting their difficulty is really obvious. I lost almost all my nerves in this game and I will probably have to go to psychiatry.

    I didn't Like racing games before Forza Horizon, this game Made me buy a Wheel and I'm enjoying it a lot. The open world is stunning, the variety of cars is insane, the graphics are the best I have ever seen, only RDR2 and Flight Simulator are close.
    There are lots of game modes and missions, the fun never ends in Forza.
    It really deserves the GOTY.

    Se o 4 era muito bom, esse é maravilhoso, quase perfeito. Mapa lindo, principalmente a parte da floresta. Carros então, cada um mais lindo que o outro, o Forza 5 conseguiu ser melhor que o 4 em tudo, o que é excelente. Mapa é GIGANTE, mto grande mesmo. Gráficos excelentes, áudio, dublagem. O melhor jogo de carro atualmente, até lançar o próximo Forza, seja o Horizon ou o Motorsport

    There’s only two things that prevents it from being a perfect game: lack of new vehicles & innovative races from what we saw in FH4. Mexico is GORGEOUS and without a doubt the star of the show. Tip of the cap to you Playground Games.

    Forza Horizon 5 is visually appealing and fun to play right from the start. The game feels well-paced. Not too quick, not too long, and takes around 40-50 hours to do mostly everything in single player.

I dislike how quickly the game throws cars at you, specifically higher class / higher power cars which almost feels like you're being rushed through the game without earning it, but at the same time I appreciate some people like this.

    The car models are absolutely fantastic with great attention to detail and lots of variety. Customisation and tuning is lots of fun and very detailed, along with the paint shop and body kits. Sadly, the sounds I feel are very flat and lacklustre and leave a lot to be desired.

    Multi-player is almost entirely dysfunctional at the time of writing. Server connection drops, convoy and player ghosting, rubber banding, etc. Bitterly disappointing for a game which would be so much fun with friends.

    Overall I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the game and would recommend it. Throw on some music in the background and you can lose a few hours in here easily. Though, don't expect to do any online cruising with your friends just yet.    … Expand

    After about 20 hours of gameplay, I wanna give my thoughts on this game. As someone who's played the Forza Franchise for years and racing games for longer, everything about FH5 feels right.

But after playing FH5 they have improved every single aspectAfter about 20 hours of gameplay, I wanna give my thoughts on this game. As someone who's played the Forza Franchise for years and racing games for longer, everything about FH5 feels right. Forza Horizon 4 was near perfect, but with a lackluster map, and horrible engine sounds the game felt the weakest in the Horizon franchise. But after playing FH5 they have improved every single aspect of this game and made everything that made FH4 good, great. The sounds of the engines is a massive improvement over FH4 and its map has some of the best driving roads I've driven on in a racing game. The long highway that spans across the map, the winding roads up the volcano that reminds me of the good old Driveclub days, the swampy area that makes me feel like I'm a rally cross driver, each road feels unique and is a blast to drive down. With 11 different biomes, in one second you will be in the canyons of Mexico, while the next you can find yourself exploring the lush forrest. With so many diverse biomes the offer a diffrent feel to each other while exploring the map. Which FH4 struggled to do. Now onto the cars. With over 570 cars yes they mostly from the last game. But think of it as smash, everyone is here, meaning new characters, but in this case cars are new or returning favorites from classic forza games. With the loss of the bodykit maker rocket bunny (most likely due to licensing problems) The game has made uo for the fact of adding 50 new bodykits to this game with new brands like TCP Magic, and KPC Japan. More wheels and a more independent tuning is always a welcome addition New transmissions to add to change your cars gears to up to a 10 speed, having the ability to add new tires like drift tires, offroad tires, and new types of slicks for dry conditions to get the most grip. The ability to rev your engines to hear the actual changes the upgrades make to the sound of your car is a great addition that many fans of the Forza Franchise have been asking for awhile. Now onto physics the games physics have been tweeked to set a more balanced racing. Cars feel more grip and are more responsive in their turning, and with changes to the PR ratings for cars it seems cars are more balanced in what class they belong in and don't seem to broken online. With also changes to the AI racers, the have been made decently harder and give you a good fight. There not to hard where their unbeatable but I do find myself learning to be more consistent on how I take corners to keep up. Now with the last part, the graphics. Forza Horizon 5 has improved its graphics by making the world feel like ultra photo realism grass and bushes look beutiful in 4k 60 fps and irlts render distance is far better then FH4 has done. Being on the top of the map I can see the whole map and it is beutiful when your that high up. In summary Forza Horizon 5 has taken the Horizon 4 formula and has perfected it toake one of the best modern day racer. Forza Horizon proves that graphics ain't all that matters and sometimes you just need to perfect the racing game formula and make a God Damm Good arcade sim racer. Bit now we have been given both of those aspects and im. Proud to see the good reviews of this game… Expand

It really seems to be the best option for gaming at the moment. My son and I both play a lot of console games and to be able to subscribe to game pass and get new games on day one is just too convenient to pass up.

It really seems to be the best option for gaming at the moment. My son and I both play a lot of console games and to be able to subscribe to game pass and get new games on day one is just too convenient to pass up. So I’m posting this as a review for forza because my loyalty to ps has run out. I purchased and Xbox series s a few days ago for the sole purpose of playing Forza Horizon 5 and I regret not getting an Xbox sooner. This is by far the best racing game on the planet as far as content and playability. I am not a hardcore race fan and don’t know a ton about cars but I do enjoy designing and driving arcade versions. There is always something to do in this game. For people like me who like to play a story game but like to continue to “clean up” after the story… this is a great game. You’ll never run out of things to do. This game alone will sell more Xbox systems. Games like this do not come around often. Congrats Forza horizon team!… Expand

    You can't even imagine how beautiful this game is. Lots of improvement to compare with the previous number. I don't know how Forza always got something to provide

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sensational action scenes which resemble movies. Good portrait of some Mexican cities, with nice additions such as moving NPCs and at some buildings is possible to see inside of it because it's open. Graphical fidelity that I never seen, terrain detail next to Flight Simulator. Very fun to play, fast start, with plenty of cars available straight away. Masterpiece.… Expand

    Huge Selection of vehicles. The vehicles all have their own feel and the sound design is great. One of the most visually stunning games i've seen and runs extremely well on my PC. Tons of things to do around the map and the map itself is a lot of fun to explore.

    C’est certainement le plus beau de l’ère Xbox Séries. Le gameplay reste dans la lignée de ses prédécesseur mais les nouveautés sont présentes et le jeu est MAGNIFIQUE

    Sin duda un apartado técnico espectacular, la fluidez, la jugabilidad y la ambientación en esta entrega hará que pases muchas horas de adrenalina mientras disfrutas la locación de Mexico.

    Sin ser mi genero favorito, soy más de RPG, estrategia y sandbox en ese orden aunque no me desagradan los juegos de coches, tengo que decir que es de las experiencias más gratificantes que sentí en un videojuego, desde que salió no puedo dejar de jugar ni un ratito, eso sí con volante.
    Es una experiencia visual y jugables excelsa.

    Just a stunning game full to bursting point with great content and pokemon-esque ‘gotta catch em’ all’ addictiveness. Aside from the anticipated graphical brilliance, the sound and the music are absolutely top notch. Just get it and embrace it.

    Excelente juego, gráficos reales, muchos autos y retos. El mejor juego de autos que he jugado!

    Ya llevo 20+ horas y sigo jugando diariamente. Para mí Forza Horizon 5 es un fuerte candidato para juego del año 2021.

Si le pones 0 a este juego con la excusa de que es genérico, de que es mediocre, de que es poco realista, de que tiene fallos técnicos e incluso de que es injugable, seguramente es tu "small dick energy" hablando, arregla tu complejito de inferioridad, mejor pasa ese tiempo realmente jugando alguno de tus juegos favoritos, en lugar de soltar bilis en twitter o metacritic.

    The best arcade races nowadays. But it is becoming clear that it's getting harder and harder to move the successful formula forward.

    It’s safe to say that Playground Games have delivered something special with Forza Horizon 5 – and as far as I’m concerned, this is currently the best driving game out there.

    Forza Horizon 5 is one of the best games of the year and starts the discussion on whether a racing title like this one could be GOTY. It stands out from the rest of similar games, both in terms of technical and gameplay aspects.
