One of Xbox's headlining titles, Forza Horizon 5, could be coming over to the proverbial dark side, PlayStation. Already on PC, Forza Horizon 5 has been a big hit, and this port to PlayStation will inevitably extend the game's fanbase yet again.
Known Xbox game pass leaker eXtas1stv announced on X that the cancelled port of Forza Horizon 5 is, in fact, potentially finished and coming to the PlayStation platform next year alongside other titles from Microsoft, such as the new Indiana Jones title.
The original post is written in Spanish, the translation on X is reasonably accurate, and eXtas1stv has a solid track record of successful predictions and leaks for Forza titles and Xbox Gamepass content. This news is unconfirmed by Microsoft, so take it with a pinch of salt, but for those PlayStation players who are envious of what PC and Xbox players have had with Forza this year, your wait might soon be over.
Thus far, the Forza franchise has been exclusive to Xbox and PC, so breaking down this barrier would be a big step - it would be like Gran Turismo, a PlayStation-exclusive icon, coming to Xbox and PC the other way around. Not too long ago, this would have seemed unthinkable - and it still does to an extent.
A PlayStation 5 port of Forza Horizon 5 could potentially be timed alongside an announcement for the upcoming Forza Horizon 6. Developer Playground Games had job listings on their website and recruitment job sites that date back to early 2023. Whilst this is not proof that Forza Horizon 6 is coming, it does mean that work could be starting on the new title already.
