From the day of launch, the new Forza Horizon 5 has begun to grind incredible numbers, making the fifth installment of the Playground Games series the fastest to reach a maximum of simultaneous players. Today has already been a month since the debut of the racing title, and it seems that the fifth iteration of the Horizon festival is still the best since the saga debuted on Xbox 360.

Currently, Forza Horizon 5 has reached 12 million players, a very high goal and that is to mark the killing of a record for the entire franchise. In addition to this, the fifth chapter was the fastest to reach 10 million players, a goal achieved in just one week.

To keep track of how much the Forza Horizon saga has managed to improve over time, just think that the fourth chapter managed to reach 8 million players only in 9 months from launch. Forza Horizon 3, on the other hand, managed to make 10 million players in 2 years. Very similar milestones across the three racing games, but in the case of Forza Horizon 5, the process was nothing short of supersonic.
This boom of interest in the new Forza Horizon is certainly given by the great general quality that the game presents, but it is also likely that many users are convinced to give the title a chance due to its presence within the subscription service.
