Get ready everyone! After the long wait, Forza Horizon 5 has finally been released, and I have finally started to play it. I have waited a bit after I got the game to write this article as I wanted to get as far as I could in order to give you the best insight possible into this great game.

So, what do I think about the game? I personally would give this game a 10/10 if I had to rate it. Part of this is due to the fact that this game is revolutionary, not in just the graphics and map department, but it is also so much more engaging for me as a player. They have implemented a progression called the "Horizon Adventure" in which you earn accolades by completing events to advance and unlock new expeditions to open new festivals. Personally, I am about halfway through the campaign of the game, and it is already blowing me away at how impressive everything is from the actors to the locations.

Going to perhaps the biggest part of all, what can you do in this game if you are bored? In the game, there are many features from the EventLab, which gives you developer controls to create custom maps, to the Eliminator, which is remastered with the new map. In truth, there really is no way to get bored of this game as it is always engaging and always has things for you to do, even if you complete the campaign.

Overall, I would say that getting this game is a must if you are a Forza Horizon fan, and trust me when I say that you will not be disappointed. Below I have attached a few photos of what the game looks like in photo mode.
