24 hours only after the official release of the game and after a few days of early access, Phil Spencer spoke on Twitter to announce that Fora Horizon 5 attracted more than 4.5 million players through the consoles, the PC and The cloud. It s three times more than for the launch day of Fora Horizon 4.
A tribute never seen before in the history of Xbox Game Studios games, whose biggest launches include those of the Halo of the Xbox 360, which made more than 3 million sales the month of their launch nothing but United States, but obviously did not benefit from the current circumstances of the Microsoft ecosystem, namely a simultaneous output on PC and a presence in the Xbox Game Pass subscription. Even though it did not grow as fast as Microsoft hoped, it is estimated that more than 20 million subscribers can download the game at no extra charge.
But the Xbox Game Pass subscription is not the only factor responsible for the success of Fora Horizon 5, whose online rankings already had a million players before the official release of November 9 thanks to the people with Pre-ordered Premium Edition for early access. Current number 1 sales on Steam, Fora Horizon 5 has made a peak of 70,000 players connected simultaneously, already well surpassing the record of Fora Horizon 4 (40,000 players) on this same platform. Recall that Steam statistics do not include Xbox Game Pass subscribers.
