Yesterday was a big day for both Xbox and PlayStation - the day that Forza Horizon 5 officially launched on PS5 for everyone, following a brief period of early access for those who bought the more expensive versions.
Early estimates suggest it's sold around 1 million copies on PS5 already, and we were keen to see what the first-timers were saying about Forza Horizon 5 on PlayStation, so we've been browsing the web for some early impressions!
Vulgarity warning for some of the comments ahead.
Let's start with our sister site, Push Square. Here are a couple of notable comments we've come across:
Countach: I started to play yesterday late afternoon and already have 12 trophies. It's a great game indeed.
JustMyOpinion: Such a fantastic game! I love the competitiveness of GT7, but FH5 is just real fun to blast around casually, and even some competition. Overall it's a great game.
Over on Twitter (or "X" if we have to call it that), there are plenty of FH5 first-timers as well:
And finally, here's a sample of what's being said on the PlayStation Reddit pages:
On the whole, there's a lot of love for Forza Horizon 5 from PlayStation fans so far, although as you can see from some of the comments above, there are also a few grumbles and bits of constructive criticism from some players.
It's going to be fascinating to see how well this Xbox first-party game sells on PS5 over the coming days, weeks and months, and we have a feeling it's going to top the PS5 charts very soon indeed. What a crazy time we're living in!
If you're interested, we've also been going hands-on with Forza Horizon 5 on PS5 recently, pointing out how it feels very weird to play on a Sony console. However, we do enjoy benefiting from that PS5 DualSense feedback...
