It has suddenly become revolutionary in the gaming industry.

[{"selector":"#anim-2cd1b967-bee7-48f6-962a-1b60b8456323","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

It has worked hard to make the game accessible to all audiences.

[{"selector":"#anim-26b7da19-efb1-4877-930a-9101af2b63d9","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

Sign language interpreters will appear on screen during cutscenes.

Deaf fans have the option of choosing between American Sign Language (ASL) or British Sign Language (BSL).

However, the game is set in a fictionalized Mexico.

[{"selector":"#anim-1ef6754b-aadf-49ae-9966-c33ef96e5b6e","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

It is not clear if the game will eventually feature Mexican Sign Language (LSM) or other signed languages.

The feature will not be available at launch, but is reportedly “coming soon.”

Forza Horizon 5 will be available for purchase on November 9, 2021.
