Forza Horizon 4 Pressing Pause On New Cars And Features After Upcoming Series 37 Update - IGN
Forza Horizon 4's library of cars and features stops growing for a while after the next update, as Playground shifts focus to Forza Horizon 5.
It's had great support and probably the best looking game around at the moment thanks to the Series X upgrade.
I'm late to the party, but the Fortune Island DLC is pretty cool.
This could be a hint that it’s gonna get pulled/delisted next year

No surprise though it is a little odd how short MS pay the rights for. Most publishers go for about 10 years
I think it’s all the music licenses, well at least with horizon, they seem to have a shorter life span the the Motorsport series.
Like a lot of the songs in horizon 5 are actually timed exclusive to the game, you can’t even purchase or stream them yet….that Garcia lady, on one of the stations, is an actual artist and one of her songs made it’s debut for the game. And some artist made song bites (bits?) for specific moments in game too. Said artist are genuine fans of the horizon series.
"Players who already own the game and its content will be able to download and play it as normal, including its offline, online, and multiplayer features; physical copies of the game purchased after this date will also work and will be able to use online features."
I miss the days on the OG Xbox where you could just create your own custom soundtracks.
I get the licensing issue. I missed out on getting FH3 and FM7 at the time not having an Xbox console during that time period when they were available. I figured MS would be doing more from now on keeping their 1st party games available to play and purchase in the future.

ALL Microsoft Studios games will launch (and stay) on Xbox Game Pass moving forward [Update]
Today, Microsoft announced that all first-party published games produced by Redmond will launch straight into Xbox Game Pass.

Surely they can just do like R* did with GTAIV and patch out the songs/cars that are causing the licensing issues?
This seems like a fairly easy and cheap way of fixing the problem. I mean, you could just run the spotify app in the background and play the forza 4 playlist lol
My guess is that would mean most of the cars and they can't be arsed to give them an fake names and badges.
Still, they seem to pay for short licenses so I'm guessing 5 will be delisted in 2026.
