Forza Horizon 5 was originally released for PC and Xbox consoles in November 2021, and weeks ago finally officially arrived at Sony’s PS5, winning the players.
Microsoft and its studios do not disclose sales numbers, but we can get a sense through estimates, such as a recent Alinea Analytics, revealing the huge success of the Sony console running game.
According to the disclosed (estimated) data, Forza Horizon 5 exceeded 3 million copies sold on PS5, standing out as the main new release on the platform.
The 5 best selling games for PS5 in 2025
- Forza Horizon 5 – 3.0 million
- Monster Hunter Wilds – 2.9 million
- Assassin’s Creed Shadows – 2.0 million
- Elden Ring Nightreign — 1.4 million
- CLAIR OBSCU: Expedition 33— 1.3 million
In addition, Forza Horizon 5 also managed to overcome PlayStation First-Part titles, such as the winner of Goty, Astro Bot, as well as Second-Party and temporary exclusive PS5.
Astro Bot is estimated to have sold 2 million copies since its release, and should exceed 3 million by the end of summer (USA).
Overall, the change from Xbox to a Third-Party publisher strategy is generating significant returns, with Forza Horizon 5 leading success on PS5.
