Forza Horizon 5 is Playground Games’ flagship open world racer in the Horizon series, sitting alongside rivals like Gran Turismo and Need for Speed but leaning harder into free roaming exploration and arcade handling. This EU version is playable across Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC, so it suits anyone bouncing between console and computer and still wanting the same festival style progression and car collecting.
Who is this for?
Pick it up if you like racing that mixes structured events with messing about in the open world, from road races to off road sprints and stunt challenges. Mexico’s map is the hook here, with varied biomes and weather that can change how grippy a route feels. It also works well as a social game, with drop in multiplayer and shared world activities that do not require you to treat every session like a serious sim.
- Platforms: Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC (EU region)
