In 2025, Microsoft paved the way for the top Xbox franchises to make the leap to Sony’s PlayStation 5. Now, a report suggests that there was clear winner among the Xbox ports: Forza Horizon 5, which hit PS5 four years after its debut. Despite that gap, it reportedly outsold the next four Xbox on PS5 games even when their sales totals were combined.
Alinea Analytics has shared its breakdown of the top 5 best-selling Xbox games for PS5 in 2025. Forza Horizon 5 led the list with 5.1 million, followed by Gears of War Reloaded in a distant second place with 572,000 copies. Coming in third with 491,000 copies was Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, while Flight Simulator came for a landing at fourth with 166,000 copies. Senua’s Saga Hellblade 2 rounded out the top five with 50,000 in sales. According to Alinea, there was only a single PS5 console-exclusive game that outsold Forza Horizon 5 in 2025. That title was Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, which moved 5.2 million copies on PlayStation 5 last year.
