The selection of cars is also just sad - who ever wanted to drive a Bronco in a racing game?! A rally Porsche? The controls are floaty and don’t depend on the terrain. The steering doesn’t vary between cars. The rumble in the controller is so OP that you’ll need to turn it off right away. Instant uninstall, if the video, audio, gameplay are bad, all that’s left is the stilted “campaign” and unskippable vignettes. Hard pass.… Expand

    Honestly, I can't in good conscience give this game a higher score. So I'll leave my disclaimer at the top before I explain why my score is so low. The graphics are amazing. Yes. They are. Just like Horizons 2, 3 and 4, the graphics are good. The cars are cool. Just like every other Horizon game (and, some might argue, every racing game, although I will say that Forza does cars just a bitHonestly, I can't in good conscience give this game a higher score. So I'll leave my disclaimer at the top before I explain why my score is so low. The graphics are amazing. Yes. They are. Just like Horizons 2, 3 and 4, the graphics are good. The cars are cool. Just like every other Horizon game (and, some might argue, every racing game, although I will say that Forza does cars just a bit better than other series).

    Beyond the graphics and the cars though, there's really nothing to this game at all. Mexico really doesn't feel like Mexico, the desert areas feel not much different from the Outback in Horizon 3, and the highways feel much the same as every other highway in the Horizon series. The city areas are the only ones that feel more distinct, which is crazy considering that the ancient temples are included in the game but the temple areas honestly feel unfinished. There was so much potential with those areas but they're really wasted. I want to make it clear: I have no issue with the choice of Mexico as a destination. Quite the contrary, in fact, I love it. I just wish they had actually done something unique with it instead of it feeling just the same as the other entries in the series.

    My next and probably biggest issue is with the progression of the game. In just a few hours of very casual play time I had unlocked more than half of the game's content and I was getting bombarded with calls from Rami and Ale about unlocking more content. It's frankly ridiculous and more than a bit overwhelming. At least give me a chance to do half of the content I've already unlocked before dumping more on me please. I'm sure the casual gamers love having everything handed to them but I prefer a challenge. It ruins any and all sense of progression, as there's no difficulty curve whatsoever.

    This also applies to the fact that you can get literally anything you want with ease. Again, in just a few hours of casual play, I already had the most expensive car in the game, and I had enough credits to upgrade any car in my collection all the way without even a second thought. I know that things will be easier for me due to my experience in racing games, but I was playing casually. I didn't even win half the races I entered, and I was driving aimlessly around the map more often than I was entering races. Yet still I was frequently progressing and making money without even trying.

    To be honest, this series has been going downhill from the very start. The first game in the series was the only one to have any sort of storyline at all (and it's still a stretch to call it that), and since then they've done away with any pretense of story entirely. It really begs the question: who is this game made for? Casual gamers? Well, they'd probably love it, but they'd get bored of it after a week like they do with everything else. Car enthusiasts? They have loads of titles to pick from with much more realistic driving, including the other Forza series. Competitive gamers? The online experience certainly does not lend itself well to a competitive environment, and there is absolutely nothing challenging about the offline experience of the game.

    Make no mistake, Forza Horizon 5, as always, is an enjoyable experience with good graphics and cool cars. But, just like other titles in the Horizon series, that is literally all it offers. There is nothing beyond the most basic of necessities.    … Expand

    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.

    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.

    Real Score: 9.7

    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.

    He tenido desde 1997 un PS y hoy tengo una PS5, desde Marzo con XBOX Series X.

    Este juego es brutal, insisto brutal gráficos de 10, rendimiento de 10, desarrollo del juego de 10 comunidad hemos de reconocer cuando algo es bueno y FORZA HORIZON 5 lo es. Soy usuario de GAME PASS aún así lo he comprado.

    El juego es realmente impactante. Empezando por lo obvio como lo son los gráficos, pero algo no tan comentado es lo referente al audio y muy pasado. Pruebas super entretenidas y esa sensación de velocidad es genial. Tantas opciones que seguramente estaré al menos 200 horas durante esta generación con este juego.

    Full disclosure, I am not a fan of racing/driving games. At all. Other than gimmick titles like Mario Kart, I think the last driving game I played was Gran Turismo 1. That being said, I've had a lot of fun with Forza Horizon 5. The sheer number of events and activities makes the game very accessible, even to people like me that don't play this genre.

The sheer number of events and activities makes the game very accessible, even to people like me that don't play this genre.

    The graphics are pretty amazing on Xbox Series X and the gameplay is both varied and engaging. As you can simply drive through the open world, it's not uncommon to find a new event pop up or one of the many 'bonus boards' hidden near the road. There's also just A LOT of ground to cover. A full circuit around the playable area, driving at about 160-180MPH, takes just over 15 minutes of real-time. That doesn't even touch all the area inside that. The number of environments is great and they all look spectacular.

    Other reviewers better cover what's right with this game. So here are the faults I found personally:

    -Lots of microtransactions; car passes, VIP membership, treasure map unlocks, season passes...they are all here and nearly double the MSRP of the game.

    -AI blatantly cheats, especially at higher levels. Frustrating to watch a drag race where all drivers have the exact same vehicle, yet the 10-11 AI drivers all uniformly pull away from the player.

    -Some modes are broken. The Forzathon shop flat-out does not work. Horizon Arcade mode works, but either needs its goals tuned down or some other way to get players working together.

    -The game has a few technical issues, though I am not too fussed about those since it's so new. Still, being disconnected from the server because I am watching a mandatory cut scene is frustrating.

    -The game is in dire need of a better tutorial. So many things are not explained, or get only a passing mention. Something that goes in-depth on car types, upgrades, controls, and how various season events work would have been extremely helpful.

    Regardless of those gripes, I still recommend that you give this one a test drive. It's one of those games that raises the bar in general for games.    … Expand

    Best arcade racing game to date. The amount of content packed into this game is impressive. And with custom user made races, and continued developer support, you'll never run out of even single player content. The graphics are gorgeous. This game looks next gen. But the star of this title is the new map. It blows away all previous maps. It's bigger. It's more diverse. It's more stylish.Best arcade racing game to date.

And on the XBSX or a PC with an SSD, the game loads fast, allowing you to do things like quickly switch cars that are best suited for the biome you're driving through. Even though I have game pass, I still bought a hard copy because the developers deserve it.… Expand

    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.

    I played every Forza Horizon game a little bit but not nearly as much as Forza Horizon 5. The environments look insane even in Performance mode and I've never seen the game drop below 60 FPS even once. This is one of my favorite open-world racing games.

    It's an improvement over Horizon 4 in every way imaginable, there's a few day one bugs but they'll be ironed out soon, I hope.

    What I don't like about this game, is how quick you progress. The game shoves good cars and levels at you like no tomorrow, and the sense of progression is quickly ruined.

    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.
