Playground Games’ Forza Horizon 5 has been performing exceptionally well since it entered early access last week and launched worldwide on November 9th. Already having noted to have crossed 4.5 million players and becoming Xbox Game Studios’ biggest launch ever, it continues to rack up the player numbers.

GM of Xbox games marketing Aaron Greenberg retweeted the recent in-game Hall of Fame and confirmed that there have been over six million players thus far. Forza Horizon 5 is currently available on Xbox Game Pass so there’s no doubt that a significant number of its players are subscribed to the service. However, even before launch, it had over one million players in early access (via the Premium Edition and add-ons).

Forza Horizon 5 is available now for Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC. Check out our official review here for more details, along with tips and tricks for beginners here.
