Forza Horizon 5's amazing success is well deserved, as Playground Games developed one of the best racing games in recent years, as highlighted by Chris in his review.
Forza Horizon 5 is yet another step up for the series and arguably the best racing game ever made. Offering a host of content across a fantastic representation of Mexico, its varied terrain and scenery, there's so much to explore and race. A massive roster of cars will perform all of these, each feeling different from the others, with a variety of upgrade and tuning options almost matching those of simulation titles. While there are a few minor niggles here and there, they are nearly so small as to be hardly worth mentioning. All in all, it's impossible not to recommend this for anybody, regardless of them being a fan of racing games or not, as this is that good.
Forza Horizon 5 is now available on PC, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and Xbox One worldwide.
