Forza Horizon 5 Series 10, Hot Wheels Expansion and New Patch Available Today

Forza Horizon 5 series 10 has arrived today along with the Hot Wheels Expansion and new patch. The Hot Wheels Pack has some of the fastest and most extreme tracks ever featured in a Horizon game. With more than 200 kilometers of looping, twisting orange track, you’ll travel through a gorgeous open world featuring new driving experiences, such as gravity-defying magnet tracks and ice, water flumes, and rumble tracks.

Series 10 also introduces a new system for saving and recovering data. When this update is installed, a pop-up message will offer to restore a previous backup if the loss of save-game data is detected. Due to this new system, players will not be able to recover save games from before Series 10.

Here’s the official Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels expansion car list:

The new expansion is included in the Forza Horizon 5 Premium Add-ons Bundle, Premium Edition and Expansions Bundle. It’s also available for $19.99 as a standalone purchase.
