The age-old debate between Xbox's Forza and PlayStation's Gran Turismo has long fueled discussions among gaming enthusiasts. With console exclusivity often dictating choices, many gamers have been unable to experience both franchises. However, a significant shift is on the horizon, offering PlayStation owners the chance to settle this debate themselves.
Forza Horizon 5, a crown jewel in the Xbox lineup, is set to make its debut on the PS5. The announcement, which was shared across social media platforms and now features a dedicated page on the PlayStation Store, marks a pivotal moment for racing game fans. The game is slated for release in the Spring of 2025, although an exact launch date remains under wraps.
Panic Button is spearheading the PS5 port, with support from Turn 10 Studios and Playground Games. This collaboration ensures that the PS5 version will match the quality and content of its counterparts across other platforms, and it will support cross-platform play, allowing gamers to race together regardless of their console.
In addition to this exciting release, a free content update titled Horizon Realms is in the works for all platforms. This update will allow members of the Horizon festival to explore beloved locations from the Evolving Worlds series, along with some unexpected surprises, enhancing the overall gaming experience.
