Free money and press for FH6

And let the doom posting especially on social media begin.

Personally I’m over it and have accepted that this is the new way for Xbox, and with how things are going I’m fine with it too. Hoping sooner rather than later Sony follows suit, I don’t believe they will anytime soon, not in the way Xbox does, but eventually.

Sony will do day and date on PC first, and then see how much more money it is and that it means they’re on the next Xbox hardware anyways.

Yayyyyyyy, more people can play one of the greatest games ever made. And it also seems to me this positions us for FH6 later this year.

I thought they would skip 5 and go for a 6 multiplatform release since they’re not releasing much content for 5 nowadays

They kinda did this with 4 though. Dropped it as the first one on Steam and got a ton of money. Then revealed that 5 was coming out a couple months later.

Maybe Switch 2 too? As it runs on Xbox One and Playground are optimisation masters…

There’s so much money to be had from finding a new audience on new platforms. Not only the base game, but then the 2 great expansions and the bazillion car packs available too.

I pray for it to happen again! After NG surprise, I can believe in another!

I’m just happy to see largely positive responses here and elsewhere. People are going to have to get with the times and no amount of “but this doesn’t count for Sony” handwaiving will change that.

I personally find it funny that we’re getting to a point that Xbox first-party puts out more games on PS5 than Sony does…

I believe they will be presenting their games on Switch 2 direct.

Oddly enough, one would think this could do more harm than good for PS since they are about to witness a game, despite the different feel, that is making a bigger splash than GT.

Hmm good, that should be an easy 100M+ dollars for Playground/MS this year.

Plus they learn about how the engine works on PS5 for future games.

They need to try to release Forza Horizon 6 day one on Playstation and Switch, there’s a lot to gain from this and nothing to lose anymore, it’d be dumb not to do it at this point.

Wow. Really feels like the mark of a new era.

We knew it for some months that it was coming

Still gives me strange vibes, still a bit afraid for the future of consoles under Xbox

At least they know they can’t rely on any growth for their console sales with those moves ( Xbox economical report)

But at the end, it is maybe the best options to keep the studios and creativity behind Xbox

Curious thing about FH5 on other platforms, do you think they allow Sign-In to your MS/Xbox account to pick up your Car Pack purchases and ForzaHorizon account settings and car garages? Or is this one of those nothing transfers and you have to repurchase everything?
