“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,” the official statement revealed.

More Xbox exclusives coming to PS5

Considered one of the best open-world car racing games, Forza Horizon 5 isn’t the only game lined up for a PS5 release. Indiana Jones and The Great Circle along with Doom The Dark Ages were recently announced to be joining the lineup. Furthermore, the Gears series is also expected to be announced soon.

“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,” the announcement added. There is also a new free content update for all platforms coming sometime this year called ‘Horizon Realms’.

It seems Microsoft is keeping its end of the bargain to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and European Union (EU) of making games more accessible post-Activision Blizzard acquisition, regardless of the circumstances.
