The shared-world seasons will change every week once players have completed a prologue set of activities that introduces them to all four seasons. Seasons are consistent across all servers in the game, ensuring that all players are exposed to the same circumstances at the same time. The globe’s ecology will alter depending on the season for example, in winter, Derwentwater will freeze over, allowing players to drive on the ice to reach sections of the game world that would otherwise be inaccessible. A dynamic weather system is included in the game, which also shows the changing seasons. Players may purchase in-game mansions to get access to additional items, automobiles, and game-play bonuses. Unlike its predecessors’ AI-driven “avatars,” the game is played in a synchronised shared environment, with each server supporting up to 72 players.The game may also be played offline. A route maker is included in the game, allowing users to construct their own races. Forza Horizon 5 is a racing video game set in a fictionalised Great Britain, containing places such as condensed depictions of Edinburgh, the Lake District (with Derwentwater), and the Cotswolds (including Broadway), among others, and over 670 registered automobiles.
