Recently, we got an update about Forza Horizon 5’s sales, which was just a few weeks ago. At that time, it was revealed that the game had sold two million copies within its first month of release. It seems that subsequent price reductions have been instrumental in maintaining a steady increase in sales figures.
In our review of Forza Horizon 5, we gave it an 8 out of 10 and stated: “Even though it’s a few years old, its extensive array of activities, comprehensive feature set, and exceptional driving mechanics make it a frontrunner.” Due to its popularity on the PS5, it’s expected that the next installment will be released simultaneously for Sony’s system along with Xbox.
