Last November, Playground Games not only shipped its latest Forza Horizon game, but also delivered one of the most refreshing releases late into 2021. From our review: “I have spent just as much time trying to find a a problem with Forza Horizon 5 as I have playing it, and I honestly just cant. Every minute I am not playing more of it I want to dive back in,” critic David Rodriguez writes.
“Forza Horizon 5 is the best game in the franchise, and it might just be the perfect arcade racing game.” Beyond the initial release of the title, Forza Horizon 5 already issued its first expansion, Hot Wheels. This is the second take of the favorite toy brand following Forza Horizon 3. Not to mention the game being the first retail bundled title for the Xbox Series X as well.
This week, Playground Games announced its next major add-on is on the way and is close to arrival. Revealing the ‘Rally Adventure’ DLC, players take to offroad racing in a new setting to experience Sierra Nueva. You can watch the trailer in the video below:
“Sierra Nueva features miles of our most extreme driving roads ever, full of unpredictable turns with steep inclines, blind crests and asphalt jumps. Drivers will kick up massive dust trails, and experience rugged deformable sand roads interwoven with pre-deformed tire tracks,” Torben Ellert, Forza Horizon Design Director writes.
“This all-new location features a range of biomes to explore including the town of Pueblo Artza, a huge Abandoned Quarry perfect for some Gymkhana action, epic Sand Dunes, the tight and twisting Desert Gorge, rolling Green Hills, and an entirely smashable Palm Forest. […] To take full advantage of this incredible environment, we’ve created our most thrilling race routes in Forza Horizon history with the largest number of racing events featured in any Horizon expansion.
“These events are brought together in our exciting new Campaign mode where you’ll get to join three rally teams and embark on timed Horizon Rally stages and multi-car Horizon Races. In these modes, compete across dirt, asphalt and challenging night-time scenarios to prove your mastery of all facets of rally driving.” It has been since the first Forza Horizon set in Colorado that revisited Rally racing and it is surely welcomed!
