Forza Horizon 5 map and locations
The complete Forza Horizon 5 map offers a number of unique and exciting landscapes for you to check out for yourself.
The complete map consists of 11 different biomes, each offering a clear picture of the world. Each of these biomes is influenced by the change of seasons and will feel different depending on which season you are currently in.
For example, the city of Guanajuato brings a touch of the hustle and bustle of everyday life to the table, showcasing a stylistic recreation of a city known for its narrow streets and alleyways.
Guanajuato is beautifully rendered in Forza Horizon 5, and the narrow spaces will quickly teach you why a part of the city is called Callejón del Beso, or Kissing Alley, where opposing balconies are close enough together for couples to kiss each other.
On the other hand, the volcanic landscapes of La Gran Caldera offer a more barren and earthy view of things.
The patches of green grass and white snow, along with the open air feel of this area, contrast directly with the bright colors and tight city limits, creating a very different feel for player maneuvers.
These environments come together to make a vast and living world for players to explore, making the thrill of racing around the map or hunting for old barn finds much sweeter.
