Forza Horizon will be celebrating its tenth anniversary soon, and Playground Games has a lot in store for Forza Horizon 5 players. The 10-Year Anniversary Update goes live on October 11th with tons of new content, from the new Horizon Origins Story and new cars to the return of Midnight Battles.
Horizon Origins features Scott Tyler of Bass Arena with five chapters that celebrate the series’ most iconic moments. The 2013 Dodge SRT Viper GTS Anniversary Edition is unlocked upon completing all chapters, paying homage to the first game’s cover car.
As for Midnight Battles, they’re essentially head-to-head races where the opponent’s car is rewarded to the player if they win. You’ll need to win four races in the Street Scene to unlock each Midnight Battle, and there are four in total. Midnight Battle routes are also available in the Rivals sections. Cars that can be obtained include the 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1, 1984 Honda Civic CRX Mugen, 2003 Toyota Celica SS-I, and the 2010 Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SV.
There will also be a four-week anniversary-themed Festival Playlist starting from October 13th that provides classic cars like the 2010 Ferrari 599XX, 2011 Koenigsegg Agera, and more. If that weren’t enough, Horizon Mixtape is being added as a new permanent radio station. Hosted by Tyler, it features some of the most memorable tracks from the series. New songs are unlocked by completing Accolades for the Horizon Origins Story and winning the specific Seasonal Championships in the Festival Playlist.
Head here for all of the details on the 10-Year Anniversary Update. Forza Horizon 5 is available now for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
