We Want Forza Horizon 5 to Work on Mac with CrossOver + GPTK

Luckeron ッ · May 3, 2025

Hey guys,

So I wanted to start a little discussion here.
Why is Forza Horizon 5 still not working on Mac? Like, literally no one has managed to get it running, not even with CrossOver with Apple’s Game Porting Toolkit (GPTK).

Mac gaming has gotten so much better lately, people are running Cyberpunk 2077, Diablo IV, GTA V and even some newer AAA games with GPTK. But Forza Horizon 5 nope. Feels like we’re totally stuck.
Do you think it’s something GPTK can fix later, or do we really need Microsoft and Playground Games to help out?
Microsoft / Xbox, please hear us out!

There are tons of Mac gamers who would love to play Forza — give us some love, we wanna race too!
Would be cool to hear what you all think or if anyone’s tried stuff I don’t know about.

:)

Sorry, it's unlikely to happen

Emulation breaks the DRM and other security features. You need to be on native AMD/Intel x64 hardware

If you want to game, buy a PC, I recommend a desktop so that it can easily be repaired and upgraded

You can play via the cloud or purchase an Xbox.

I've never played any of the Horizons but they look much more fun than the standard Forza Motorsports series. And i love me some Halo crossovers
