YouTube’s ElAnalistaDeBits has shared a comparison video between the in-game and the real-life locations of Forza Horizon 5. Forza Horizon 5 is set in Mexico, and this video shows how close to the real environments the game came to.

In order to compare the in-game and real-life locations, ElAnalistaDeBits used images from Google Maps. Now while these images are not THAT detailed, they can give you an idea of the differences between real life and in-game graphics. Most notably, the in-game lighting is still not as good as what we have in real life. On the other hand, and thanks to photogrammetry, most surfaces look great.

Forza Horizon 5 is one of the best looking games to date. Yesterday, we shared a video, showcasing this new racing game in 8K/Max Settings.

The game is already available to those that have pre-ordered its Premium version. For the rest of us, the game will become available on November 9th.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
