    Awww man since the 5th I've been playing tf out of Forza Horizon 5. I'm glad they changed some things from 4 that makes more sense. I'm not rushing to unlock the next event I'm beating each event at my pace. The amount of cars is amazing and so detailed. There's nothing available on any home consoles that has anything this good this year at the moment.

    Einiges Mango es fehlen ein paar Automarken die in FH 4 noch dabei waren.

    The songs and sounds of this game are also a point to highlight, because they are great, and many came to my personal playlist.
    Even the way to get the cars is very good, as it is very easy to get them, either through the dealership or through the online auction.

    Lo que mas me gusta es la libertad de poder ir por México, hacer lo que quieras y cuando quieras para ir progresando en el juego como tu quieras.

    They really nailed it this time. FH5 may be the best racing game ever made. It mixes arguably the most realistic graphics on console with plenty of fun racing action. The Mexico setting in 4K HDR is breathtakingly beautiful. This is a must-play title for Xbox.

    The Forza horizon is a diamond. Its graphics are from another planet. The detail that the game has, really does not exist. The game is awesome in all respects. The game map for me is the best map in the series. Huge with a lot of content. I have played items for 20 hours and I have not had enough. It is a game that I will play for months and several years.

    It's got great graphics and Scenery.
    It's definitely the best racing game in existence.
    But there's no story and there aren't many things to enjoy

    really nice game with lots of stuff to do. great performance on pc.
    only thing that get on my nerves is the story background / dialogs, but you can easily ignore it. With Xbox game pass absolutely a must have played game!

    Never played something so beautiful and fun in my life.
    The open work of this game is more realistic than any other game on the market, and in this case you moce around at 300km/h. Amazing.
    Can't believe the level of detail of this game. Must have.

    Why change a formula which is good? Exactly. This game is just like Horizon 4 but with a new map in Mexico.

    It's fun to play and the game runs excellent. If you did not like the previous part skip this one :)

    A car festival like you havent seen before. Except I have seen it before, in Forza Horizon 4. That was my main thought while playing this game - that it feels a lot like its predecessor. Possibly its because I had just played through 100 hours of 4, just months before the release of 5. I just wish they wouldve changed things up a little more.

I just wish they wouldve changed things up a little more. Dont get me wrong its a great game still and is very fun and all the Horizon goodness you want is present. And Ill be in for 6 when it inevitably comes out. I just would like for them to take some risks and change up the formula a bit. Maybe some sense of progression would be nice.

    All those 0-rating scores are just irrelevant and made probably by some funboys.
    What about gameplay?
    Man, I am not a huge racing games fan, but this game got me sucked in since a first minute. The world is huge and varied, simply free ride gives tons of fun. In week first, there are some online-gaming issues, about to be patched.

    Game is working fine, playing nice even in 30fps quality mode, car graphics are photo-realistic and if somebody will make a new racing game in 10-15 years, it is just no way for it to be much better in termes of a car graphics.
    Other graphics are just fine, with very good looking environmental textures in 4k. Buildings are detailed, not just a plin texture as in other racing games. By playing it, making photos many times it is hard to judge if it is a real photo or just a game shot.
    I am very suprised with this game. If you know what to expect - a great amount of arcade fun (not a racing simulator) with cars jumping from above, hyper-cars in the middle of a jungle and that kind of stuff, you will be just having a great time.

It’s going to be hard for other arcade racing games to top what Forza Horizon has established. There are a large amount of race types spanning across a large landscape of different environments. The new setting in Mexico is fantastic, and they made the terrain vary tremendously over previous entries, which makes it more exciting to explore. The formula is otherwise the same - explore the world, go to races, complete random tasks, find the collectibles. It’s as connected as the other games, so your progress is constantly compared to others on your friends list which makes it feel a bit more engaging. There is a lot of content to experience in this game, but with each passing game, I’m finding myself stopping sooner and sooner. Doesn’t mean the game is bad, because it still truly feels like that celebration of cars that you experienced in the other games. The graphics of the terrain are stunning. They really nailed the environments, and it really does a wonderful job of making you take your eyes off the road. The car models on the vehicles are also exceptional, but after the latest Gran Turismo, they do feel a bit dated. The sound design is great like always in these games.

    I don’t want to nitpick stupid things about the game, because it does not affect my score in any way. But the implementation of “wokeness” into this game is very overt. You have to pick your pronouns, you can choose if you have any prosthetic limbs, you can choose different face masks that you can unlock - but you can’t change facial hair. Again, it’s not a big deal at all, but it’s just stupid.

    Overall, it’s an awesome game that anyone who likes cars is guaranteed to enjoy. It’s a fun celebration of cars.    … Expand

    While Forza Horizon 5 sticks mostly to their last games formula it does improve in aspects such as car customisation, expeditions and crazy weather like sandstorms along with some small tweaks here and there.

    Forza Horizon 5 chose a fantastic theme for their new map that being Mexico and have done wonders in making it feel so authentic and beautiful it’s truly a gorgeous looking world.

    Forza Horizon 5 chose a fantastic theme for their new map that being Mexico and have done wonders in making it feel so authentic and beautiful it’s truly a gorgeous looking world. Playground included iconic locations from all over Mexico itself, different biomes and weather events all while making it feel natural and not just different places stapled together.

    The story of the game is nothing to write home about and was to be expected as playground has always focused more on the core gameplay and that’s no exactly a bad thing as I have yet to play a racing game that has a remotely good story, I have always looked past that in racing games because when playing a racer the story of the game is not what I’m looking for.

    I played Forza Horizon 5 on the Xbox Series X in performance mode and it ran outstandingly well and the only problem was disconnecting from their servers from time to time and I can only assume this was due to the vast amount of people playing during launch, only time will tell.    … Expand

    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.
