Forza Horizon 5 has officially sold over 5 million copies on PS5

Forza Horizon 5 marked one of the biggest first-party Xbox games to come to PS5, with the 2021 open-world racing title releasing back in April of last year to near-immediate success. Since then, sales have continued to truck along, with FH5 co-developer Virtuous Games confirming that over 5 million copies have been sold on PS5 alone.

As part of the ‘Success Stories’ section of their website, Virtuous Games (known for co-developing a ton of titles ranging from Astral Chain to Mortal Kombat and even Call of Duty) revealed that Forza Horizon 5 has officially sold over 5 million copies on PS5, writing:

“Our multidisciplinary teams contributed extensively across art production, engine enhancement, performance optimization, and tooling development to help deliver a visually breathtaking and technically robust racing experience. Forza Horizon 5 was one of the best-selling titles on PlayStation 5 in 2025, surpassing 5 million copies sold on the platform and earning widespread acclaim.”

This isn’t the first time that this 5 million figure has been floated, with analyst firm Alinea claiming back in January that they believed the title had surpassed this milestone. That said, this latest report marks the first official confirmation of its PS5 sales success.

Considering the fact that Forza Horizon 5 arrived on PS5 years after its initial release, it will be interesting to see how Forza Horizon 6 performs when it lands on PlayStation mere months following its Xbox/PC launch.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
