Forza Horizon 5 will require new PS5 players to link a Microsoft account upon first booting the game. This process adds an extra step, as players already need a PSN account. While linking accounts is generally permanent, users may unlink them, but must re-establish the original Microsoft connection. Additionally, PlayStation Plus is necessary for online features, although offline play remains accessible. One drawback is the lack of save file transfer for PS5 users, as cross-progression exists only with Xbox and PC, prompting concerns about account requirements.
Players who purchase Forza Horizon 5 on PS5 will need to link a Microsoft account to access the game, which has sparked discussions about having multiple accounts.
Linking Microsoft and PSN accounts is a permanent requirement but allows a lasting association between the two accounts, which may differ by game.
Unlike Xbox and PC players, those on PS5 won't be able to transfer their save files, limiting cross-progression to Xbox and Windows 10 PC only.
Players must also have an active PlayStation Plus membership for online features, while offline gameplay remains available to all players.
