, ,

As you probably know by now, #Forzathon has changed pretty dramatically in the latest iteration of the game. Check out our Forza Horizon 4  #Forzathon primer to make sense of the new #Forzathon format if you’re not already familiar with it.

At any rate, Autumn is back and here we are with a week that showcases the 1999 Dodge Viper GTS ACR! The Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon December 27-January 3rd event gives you a chance to earn an extra 100 (or 200 with the VIP house) #Forzathon Points. This Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon event started today at 7:30 a.m. PT and closes at 7:30 a.m. PT on January 3rd. In addition to the four new #Forzathon events, there are also a number of new Autumn Season races (including extra Fortune Island Autumn Season races), PR stunts, and two new free vehicles for Car Pass owners!

  • Sink Your Teeth Into This: Own and drive the spiritual successor to the AC Cobra, the 1999 Dodge Viper GTS ACR

Road/Track

Easy peasy. Head out to the freeway and race up and down it to get 10 Ultimate Speed Skills.

Detroit Muscle

For this one, filter out your races to Road Race, and hit up four Circuit races. You’ll need to win these so you’ll want to make sure you set the Drivatar level appropriately to ensure easy wins.

Pure Venom

Last, head to your favourite Drift Zone and drift up and down it until you earn 9 stars from it. Once complete, you’ll be rewarded your 100 (or 200) #Forzathon Points for the week.

#Forzathon Shop

The Summer #Forzathon Shop has also been updated. This week, you can snag the 1972 Ford Falcon XA GT-HO Forza Edition for 350 FP and the legendary 2018 McLaren Senna for 275 FP. Also up for grabs is the legendary Reindeer Jumper top for 100 FP and the legendary Sleepy Emote for 100 FP. As usual, you can pick up Wheelspins for 40 FP or Super Wheelspins for 150 FP each.
