Removing DLCs before the summer sale is a such a bad decision.

Why remove the game DLC first and then issue an announcement?WHY!?if you delete the game from all platforms,give all players who have the game all DLC

Are you kidding me?I bought FH4 only three weeks

Why are you removing the DLC?,Why don't you just remove the game when the copyright expires.,The game is a good game.,I want to buy the whole DLC to make a collection.,You'd better take it off the shelves directly.,Wouldn't it be good if you directly extended the DLC to December.,If you don't re-put it on the shelves.,I won't support this game in the future.。 😔

That's a shame, FH4 is a great game.

But delisting was always going to happen sooner or later, like happened with FH1, 2 and 3.

it was until that point the devs stopped fixing bugs, but keeps patching in new cars LOL

Live service is a blight on the gaming industry and on the video game art form.

地平线4甚至比地平线5还优秀，确实太可惜了~~每次登陆地平线4的时候我都会观看完登路界面的cg动画~~感受惊艳的四季变化

Such a Rich corporation as Microsoft that spends 75 billions on Activision can not afford to spend few thousands of dollars to renew licenses and to keep servers running, so instead they removing game and its DLCs from sales and shutting down multiplayer after just 3 years since release! And they do it with quite popular game that sold millions of units! This is insanity! Game preservation not existent anymore, custom user operated servers not existent anymore! You can still buy Quake 1 and 2 originals after 25-30 years and still can play multiplayer... but this game it getting wiped out of existence after just 3 years!

I did not even manage to play all features of games after i purchased it and now those features will be gone! Waste of money! I was going to buy Forza Horizon 5, but after this in not going to give my money to Microsoft for any game with life services again, because i dont want my games to turn into brick in just 3 years!

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, games should be fully functional forever! And we should have warranty that official servers will remain operational at least 10 years! And once official support is ended all features should remain functional and server binaries and sources should be released and game should be patched to allow to connect to custom servers so that users can continue to operate servers of games unofficially! This is how it should be done!

All the car tunings and liveries will be gone. And this game is classic enough to be a time capsule. Sure there is licensing but there is also voices of Top Gear. Myself was looking for FH3 Ultimate but missed out on that as I wasn't looking for every game. Would love to play these games more casually as sometimes its too intense to make the points to get all the cars or figure out the complicated menu but that part gets easier having the time to play this casually.

Without the tunings and liveries there will be some disservice for casuals like myself. Likewise in the sense of long term cultural game preservation.

Maybe make a final release of everything that can be preserved and put it as freeware. This is Microsoft and here is what we did as a historical time piece game of great cultural value.

Or remaster these Forza Horizons at some point or periodically so we can always append our save game and have continuation with achievements.

Sure some stuff is filler but the baby is still there and it needs to live.

I did hear this game has crossplay, so I am wondering: if you own the game on the MS account with all DLC's, play it there & get a savegame with the DLC cars, then you launch it on Steam where you don't own the DLC, will you have access to the DLC cars with your cross play savegame or do they just poof disappear

The Steam version saves are not compatible with the MS store version

Online features aren't going away, they're just not releasing new festivals (for now). Also the game's been out since 2018, despite the more recent addition to Steam.

Now when the announcement comes that online/multiplayer is being taken down I absolutely agree they should make the server software open source, which I think should be the norm in cases like this (though I wouldn't hold my breath).

I really wish they would add in huge text in the post that online functionality isn't going away as of this announcement. It's in the full announcement but clearly no one is reading that.

Really? Do you speak from experience? That's kinda strange since you have to connect the game to the xBox Live account. And the Win/xBox version is play anywhere, with the same savegame.

Yeah, it is written on the Forza website
