One thing that's sure to appeal to people is that Forza Horizon 5 is available on Game Pass from day one. But be warned, according to reviews, if you want to just dip your toe to try it out, you'll get sucked in rapidly.

When comparing it to Forza Horizon 4, critics think Forza 5 is "smartly restructured but reassuringly unchanged." Check out what leading outlets think about the racing game:

At the time of writing, Forza Horizon 5 holds 92 out of 100 at OpenCritic and 91 out of 100 at Metacritic. This means Forza Horizon 5 is proudly standing as the year's highest-rated game and could very well retain this title by the end of 2021. Playground Games has completely nailed it with car simulators in recent years.

What about flaws? Tthere must be some, right? Well, it's not an easy task to search for one in a game as polished as Forza 5, yet some critics mentioned the title is quite resource-heavy on PC. It also lacks as much impact or innovation as its predecessors, and the game is "overpacked like a multi-layer party cake." But simply put, If you're looking for a large, beautiful, fun racing experience, Forza Horizon 5 has got you covered.

Forza Horizon 5 is launching on November 9.
