Forza Horizon 5 Series 39 Update

Forza Horizon 5 is famous for its vibrant visuals of Mexico. This gaming universe follows an open-world car racing series developed by Playground Games and published by Xbox Game Studios. It’s a spin-off of the main Forza Motorsport series. 

Still, while the Motorsport games feature traditional track-based racing, Forza Horizon supports an open-world environment, allowing its players to race, explore, and participate in various challenges freely.

The Latest Update

Forza Horizon is back with an exciting update for gaming enthusiasts. Set in the breathtaking landscapes of Mexico, Series 39 features a fresh selection of cars catering to gaming and car enthusiasts.

According to the latest patch notes for Forza 5, notable additions include Abarth 131, BMW M4 Competition, Cadillac, XTS Limousine, Mercedes 280SL, Pagani Huayra BC, and Rivian R1S. Each of these new cars comes with its set of unique features that will enhance players’ performance. This update will officially begin on October 10th; however, players will get the download feature on October 7th.

Everything You Need To Know About Series 39

Let’s take a look at what this latest update has to offer:

  1. Horizon Backstage

As per the latest patch notes, the backstage pass is finally back and is said to allow players to purchase any cars they find hard to access from the backstage shop. However, it’s important to note that once the update begins, the backstage shop will not have every car available and will be starting with six vehicles in the initial stages: a 1980 Fiat 131, Abarth 2021, a BMW competition coupe 2013, Cadillac XTS the 1967 Mercedes Benz 280 SL, the Proton Wira and the 2022 Rivian R1S.

Fortunately, based on majority votes, two more cars will be added to the backstage shop every week. Moreover, an extra backstage pass can be purchased from the shop for 1000 credits.

While navigating through this update, players will have to consider the following rules:

  • Players are only allowed to purchase one car at a time. 
  • Any vehicle purchased directly from the backstage shop can be put in the auction house or sent as a gift drop.
  • The horizon backstage pass will be dropped once the new season begins, and as a celebratory token, all the players will receive a complimentary backstage pass via in-game messages.
  1. New Additional Cars
Back to 90s

In Series 39, a total of four new cars will be introduced. Don’t get too excited! We are still not getting the Honda EG, Iro Z, or even the Venturi Atlantic or 400 GT. 

Regardless, the 1997 Toyota Soarer 2.5 GT-T is one of the four in this new update. The interior of this car will be completely different; however, it is similar to the JZX81 Chaser we got in the series 38. To unlock this, you must earn 20 points in the summer season
