Forza Horizon 5 will offer the biggest map in the series to-date (2024)

FAQs

Which Forza Horizon map is bigger? ›

In a map size comparison the FH4 world had 80km^2 and FH 5 should have about 105km^2. So it is about 30% larger.

The Crew Motorfest, on the other hand, takes you to the Hawaiian island of O'ahu. The map is smaller than its counterpart in Forza Horizon 5, but no less varied.

Forza Horizon 5 has a map that's 1.5 times the size of Horizon 4, or nearly 80 miles wide. Forza Horizon 4 had a map that was 52 square miles wide, which was similar in size to Horizon 3. Well, for Horizon 5, the team decided to turn things up to 78, or thereabouts.

Amongst the 4 you listed, the Koenisgegg CCGT, McLaren F1 GT, McLaren F1, Subaru Impreza 22B-STI, I'd recommend buying in the auction house only the F1 GT, as there is many other choices much cheaper to replace the other 3 for an equivalent level of performance.

High-fidelity textures with multiple layers of materials simply do need a lot of space, there's no way around that. Is it possible to create great games within less than 1 GB of space? Sure. The original Doom took up less than 2.5 MB.

The Forza Horizon 5 map is the biggest in the series' history. It features a wide variety of locations, cities, rural hillsides, and biomes to explore as you are hunting down Forza Horizon 5 barn finds or simply racing along highways in the fastest car in Forza Horizon 5.

Hotel Castillo

The final property in Forza Horizon 5 is none other than Hotel Castillo, a stunning and expansive mansion that boasts of huge grounds and (apparently) always-on-site staff.

The map measures approximately 5 000 – 7 000 km² and has over 10 000 kilometers of winding roads. A trip from San Francisco to New York will take: "about an hour and a half and that's on the roads, but if you're going off-road, you can expect two hours and a half of your time to be taken up."

In conclusion. The Crew Motorfest offers a variety of ways to play the game, case in point access to planes and boats. However, considering Forza Horizon 5's amazing graphics and detail, not to mention the upgradability of the cars in the game, many would probably stick with the latter.

Development. The narrow streets and plazas of Guanajuato are used as a setting for urban races. Forza Horizon 5 was developed by Playground Games. The goal for the team was to create a game whose scale was significantly larger than its predecessors.

What is Forza 5 map based on? ›

Explore the vibrant and ever-evolving open world landscapes of Mexico with limitless, fun driving action in hundreds of the world's greatest cars.

More focused. Instead of just majoring on scale as a unique selling point – The Crew 2 had a map between 5,000 – 7,000 km² thanks in part to technology by Asobo Studio – it's more about the vibe, neon lights, British rock duo Royal Blood on the stereo and meaty vehicle handling.

The FH4 map feels so much more alive in horizon open. Also the FH4 map feels more detailed to me. And last the scenes are better in my opinion for example the scene form the hill between ambelside and the horizon festival is beautiful with the lake in the background.

The Crew 2's map size is approximately 5,000-7,000 km² and has over 10,000 kilometers of drivable roads. That's humongous compared to Forza 5's 107 square kilometers.

Forza Horizon 5, however, takes the cake easily. While Horizon 4 is no slouch when it comes to graphics, Horizon 5's inclusion of ray-tracing technology in the car viewer, along with new visuals for dirt and sand for off-roading makes for an overall better-looking game.

FH4 Standard Edition is 82 GB. This information is available for each game to all Steam users via Properties. It's only says game needs 80-100 gb storage, that's all.
