‘Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious’ Includes 11 Cars, Set In Southern France

Earlier today, the ‘Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious’ Xbox One game was announced. Now, Microsoft have shared more details on the expansion and confirmation of the companies partnership with Universal Partnerships & Licensing. The deal allows the creation of an original ‘Fast & Furious’ themed expansion for Forza Horizon 2 that acts as a standalone game.

“Forza is synonymous with racing and fun, so it’s only natural for us to work with one of the most celebrated action franchises in the world,” said Phil Spencer, Head of Xbox at Microsoft. “This is a great way to bring Forza players into the world of ‘Fast & Furious,’ and in Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious, every fan will get a chance to go wheels-first into the exciting action of the ‘Fast & Furious’ franchise.”

‘Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious’ includes 11 vehicles from the ‘Fast & Furious’ films including some new cars from the upcoming ‘Universal Pictures’. The story involves you being recruited by mechanic Tej Parker, sourcing cars for the Fast & Furious crews next big mission. You take part in car challenges set in the south of France (this probably means no new land and Southern France in the mainland, not including the outside mainland) inspired by both the film and Forza Horizon 2 game. As you complete game challenges, you’ll unlock new cars that you can drive in the open world in free roam. You’ll also be able to take photos of your favourite cars and share them with other players on the Forza website and Forza Hub app.

Here’s a list of the special vehicles that will feature in the Expansion:
