Sick and tired of Playground Gameslocking awesome newForza Horizon 5cars behind paid DLC? Good news, then, because the new High-Performance Dailies season is entirely free and earnable by playing the game, and it’s loaded with cool new stuff to chase (drive?) after.
Playground Games’ penchant for adding huge new content updates toForza Horizon 5practically every single month continues to surprise me. BetweenEventLab updates,Jurassic Park events, andForza Motorsportcrossovers, there’s no shortage of goodies to work for in this game, but the new High-Performance Dailies season is mercilessly trucking ever-onwards. Its biggest boons? Four awesome new cars, four all-new race routes, and a sign of things to come.
Forza Horizon 5 continues its dizzyingly large content updates with the High-Performance Dailies season
First things first, then: we’re getting four entirely new Sprint race routes with the High-Performance Dailies season, which is going live on August 15. These are the following:
It’s always nice to see a racing game’s track roster grow, and they will be prominently featured as part of the next couple of weeks’ racing events. Now, as for those all-new cars, they are all being added toForza Horizon 5as free seasonal unlockables, with no DLC in tow this time around. Nice! Here’s the full list:
A fine selection of road cars indeed! To be honest, theForza Horizonseries has historically had a penchant of overlooking road vehicles in lieu of supersport Lamborghinis and whatnot. That’s all nice and good, of course, but stuff like the Camry is where it’s really at, especially when they come packing some spicy new body kits for good measure.
Now, here’s the really mysterious bit: “Next stop: Hidden Horizons! Join us as we welcome a brand-new game mode, new reward cars, the Stadium Maze, and the return of Pathfinder,” says the final line of Playground’s new blog post. Is that a hide-and-seek game mode I’m hearing about? We’ll have to wait and see.
All in all, then, Playground Games isn’t mucking about, even years afterForza Horizon 5‘s release. Here’s a funny thing to keep in mind, though: whereasForza Motorsportcontinuously sunsets its latest set of events whenever a new one drops in, those four aforementioned race routes are staying inForza Horizon 5for good.The car FOMO is still present and accounted for, of course, but I’ll take what wins I can get.Forza Horizon 5is going to be one of the biggest racing games of all time when it enters its end-of-life stages, as is happening later this year withForza Horizon 4. Neat stuff, that.
