The implicit promise of Forza Horizon is in the name. You see something on the horizon, you can drive to it. Skyrim with cars. Far Cry with more cars and no guns. Forza Horizon 5, the latest game in the venerable Xbox racing series, is no more and no less than that promise—just bigger, brighter, and so, so much more…

     Forza Horizon 5 reviews – our roundup of the critics' scores

The big day approaches for racing game fans. Forza Horizon 5 launches on November 9, but ahead of that date we've now got a good idea of what's headed our way. The Forza Horizon 5 reviews have begun rolling in, letting us know what's on the near horizon (hah) and whether Playground Games' latest will be worth your hard-earned pennies. So far, it seems the answer is a big, resounding 'yes'.

Reviews for the upcoming PC game are positively glowing across the board. The racing game, which takes players to the "vibrant and ever-evolving open world landscapes of Mexico", is sitting at a pretty stellar 91 on Metacritic across both PC and Xbox Series X, and 92 on Opencritic across all platforms. There are full marks among the critics' scores, with plenty of reviews putting it very near the top end of the scale, too - so it sounds like it's a not-to-miss for fans of the series and racing games more broadly.

IGN scores it a ten-out-of-ten (a 'masterpiece'), for example, concluding that Forza Horizon 5 is "the result of a racing studio at the peak of its craft and the best open-world racing game available". You can catch this and the other reviews we've rounded up through the links below.

We're about to get our next peep at FromSoftware's upcoming action-RPG very soon. The studio has announced on Twitter that it'll show a generous 15 minutes of Elden Ring gameplay on streaming platforms this week. While it's not known what the devs will be revealing during those precious minutes just yet, with Elden Ring being one of the most excitedly anticipated games of recent years, safe to say it's going to be well worth tuning in.

First up, the when. According to FromSoft's tweet, the Elden Ring 15-minute gameplay stream will go live on November 4 at 7am PDT / 10am EDT / 2pm GMT / 3pm CET. The stream will be shown on Elden Ring's YouTube channel and publisher Bandai Namco's Twitch channel at those times, though you can get cosy and tune in with us here via the embed below if you like.

The good news is that "language subtitles" will be available for viewers checking out the stream on YouTube, the studio follows up on Twitter, adding that "if this would aid your viewing enjoyment, we invite you to join us there".

League of Legends patch 11.22 has hit the MOBA game's live battlegrounds, and its follow-up has now hit the PBE for its own round of testing - so let's take a look around at what's new and on the way.

As revealed by Riot on its various social media channels, patch 11.23 brings a batch of sugary sweet Café Cutie skins, with Annie, Soraka, Vladimir, Gwen, Bard, and Sivir being the lucky champions in for new looks in the alternate universe line this update.

     Forza Horizon 5 wants you to slow down and appreciate ray tracing in Forzavista

Forza Horizon 5 launches on November 9, and we've had a chance to catch up on all things PC with the game's creative director Mike Brown and technical art director Gareth Harwood. We talked about the importance of accessibility, how SSDs transformed the team's design approach, and the technologies the development team has employed to make the game as visually stunning as possible.

In addition to the Forza Horizon 5 system requirements, Playground Games recently revealed that the game will sport a number of PC-exclusive features, such as support for 21:9 resolutions, unlocked frame rates, and a massive amount of graphics settings to tinker with. However, it was also revealed that the game's implementation of ray tracing would be limited to the game's vehicle viewer mode, Forzavista.

This is the first time any form of ray tracing has appeared in a Forza game, which Harwood explains came about thanks to the Xbox Series support for DXR (DirectX Raytracing). "Having platforms like the Xbox Series consoles allows all these capabilities to filter down into other platforms, and in some cases turn them up to the next level on gaming PCs."

     Forza Horizon 5 Pc - Review Cover - Bronco Volcano JumpIf you came here only to see what score I gave Forza Horizon 5, allow me to provide a quick answer: it's the best racing experience that I've played to date, bar none. Playground Games has absolutely outdone itself with this release, and set a new standard for what an open-world racer can be. The depth of the gameplay and its mechanics, the world, the presentation — this is the new crème de la crème of its genre. Or, as I should say — lo mejor de lo mejor! From its opening moments of having you speed down the side of an active volcano in a Ford Bronco after launching from a cargo plane, Forza Horizon 5 shows you exactly what absurdly amazing deathtrap of a situation you've gotten yourself into. It simply tells you to hold on and enjoy. The game is a non-stop rollercoaster ride from the get-go, and it just gets wilder the more you play. Having been with the series since its PC arrival with Horizon 3, I can say that not only has Horizon's formula be...
