Forza Horizon 5 has proven to be a massive hit on the PlayStation 5, with the game’s PS5 release surpassing 5 million copies sold, according to market analysts. This remarkable milestone has helped the title bring in more than $300 million in revenue for Xbox, highlighting just how successful its multiplatform strategy has become.
Originally launched in 2021 for Xbox and PC, Forza Horizon 5 didn’t reach PlayStation until April 2025, yet it has still become one of the platform’s top-performing games — even dethroning some major exclusives in sales charts.
Industry data from Alinea Analytics shows that the open-world racer has continued selling steadily months after its PS5 debut, proving there’s strong demand for the franchise beyond Xbox hardware. The impressive sales figures demonstrate that Xbox’s decision to bring one of its biggest titles to a rival console has paid off handsomely.
Despite this success, Microsoft has not confirmed a simultaneous PS5 launch for the upcoming Forza Horizon 6, which is currently slated to arrive first on Xbox Series X|S and PC in 2026. Many fans believe a day-one PS5 release for the sequel would build on Horizon 5’s momentum and further boost Xbox’s cross-platform revenue.
