Forza Horizon 5 Coming to PlayStation 5 This Spring, New Update Planned For All Versions

Microsoft and developer Panic Button have announced that the hit open world racing game Forza Horizon 5 will be coming to PlayStation 5 this spring.

The PlayStation version of the game will be identical to the Xbox and PC release, with all DLC packs available for purchase as well. A free update is also planned in the near future, which will further expand the content within the base game.

Currently Forza Horizon 5 features live service game elements, where new content is constantly being added for free, and new cars can be obtained by completing special events. 

The game also has a unique feature where the game records players racing styles, and builds AI controlled opponents based upon them. This allows racers to go up against their "friends" without having to be online at the same time. These AI racers appear within the single player campaign races, and are subject to difficulty settings to increase or decrease their challenge. 

Races are also fully customizable, and can be submitted for other players within the community to play.

You can wishlist the game today.

For more, here is what the official website had to say about the announcement:

Announcement:

With nearly 900 cars available in the game, over 40 thematic game updates, two expansions, and so much more content, our team is excited to announce that this spring, PlayStation 5 players will be able to explore Mexico’s beautiful roads and experience the Horizon Festival for the first time as we are officially launching Forza Horizon 5 on PS5.

The PlayStation 5 version of Forza Horizon 5, developed by Panic Button in partnership with Turn 10 Studios and Playground Games, will have the same content as the Xbox and PC releases of the game. Previously released Car Packs, as well as the Hot Wheels and Rally Adventure expansions, will also be available for purchase.

We are excited to see the Forza Horizon 5 community grow with new players on PS5, and we can't wait to see the creativity and skill these new creators, builders, and racers will bring to our vibrant community.

In addition to bringing Forza Horizon 5 to PS5, we’re working on a special new free content update for all platforms, Horizon Realms. Realms will give players the chance to explore a curated collection of some of the community’s favorite previously released Evolving Worlds, alongside some other surprises.
