Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels Expansion is now live on the Microsoft Store, allowing players to create their own Hot Wheels monstrosity using over 80, distinct, snappable track pieces. Along with the new modular tracks, the expansion also introduces 10 new cars including the 2021 Hennessy Venom F6 and the 2000 Hot Wheels Deora II.
The expansion will be included in the Forza Horizon 5 Premium Edition, Expansions Bundle, and Premium Add-Ons Bundle. The expansion drops along with the July 19 update which fixes a number of bugs as well as improves the overall stability and performance issues of Forza Horizon 5.
The July 19 update adds a new Save Recovery System which will help players in case of lost save data. If a player loses their save data, they will now be shown a pop-up offering to restore a previous backup.
