Forza Horizon 5 was originally scheduled to release on PlayStation 5 (PS5), but the game’s release on the console was ultimately delayed. This emerges from a new claim from well-known leaker eXtas1s.

In a post on social media, they said the release was delayed over the summer, but clarified that it was not canceled. At the time it was said that it was assumed that the game would be a success on the PS5 and that it was still being planned.

“It will arrive,” they said in translation. “I don’t know when, but it will come.”
