|
, ,

As you should 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, Summer is back and here we are with a week that showcases the larger racing trucks. The Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon February 14-21st event gives you a chance to earn an extra 100 (or 200 with the VIP house) #Forzathon Points in any truck class vehicle! This Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon event started February 14 at 7:30 a.m. PT and closes at 7:30 a.m. PT on February 21st. In addition to the four new #Forzathon events, there are also a number of new seasonal races (including extra Fortune Island Summer Season races), PR stunts, and two new free vehicles for Car Pass owners!

“Red Lorry, Yellow Lorry” #Forzathon

Check out the complete Challenge list below:

  • Kit and Caboodle: Own and drive any Truck
  • Heavyweight: Throw your weight around and earn 10 Trading Paint Skills in your Truck
  • Size Matters: Honk honk! Let nothing stand in your path as you earn 10 Wreckage Skills in your Truck
  • Hammer Down: Time for a long haul. Win a Road Racing Series event at The Goliath circuit in your Truck!

NOTE: These challenges must be done in the order they appear in the list above. 

Kit and Caboodle

As usual, a simple start. Simply purchase (if you don’t already own one) any Truck class vehicle. This includes the 2014 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U5023, 2015 Mercedes-Benz #24 Tankpool24 Racing Truck, and the 2016 Volvo Iron Knight. Once purchased, hop into it and you’ll be able to proceed to the next challenge.

Heavyweight

Trading Paint Skills require that you brush up against another vehicle while passing. Get 10 of these to move on…

Size Matters

Wrecking Skills are easy-peasy, simply head to a wooded area or the beach with the dunes and fences and start smashing through tree stumps, bushes, and fences to get 10 Wrecking Skills.

Hammer Down

Goliath time! This one will take a while depending on your tune set up and will probably take you at least 10 minutes to finish a lap. And you’ll have to WIN so make sure to adjust your settings accordingly.

#Forzathon Shop

The Summer #Forzathon Shop has also been updated. This week, you can snag the 1980 Renault 5 Turbo Forza Edition for 400 FP and the legendary 2016 Gymkhana 10 Ford Focus RS RX for 750 FP. Not really sure why some of these second vehicle prices are jacked lately… Also up for grabs are the legendary Clown Mask hat and Killer Instinct Theme car horn for 200 FP a piece. As usual, you can pick up Wheelspins for 40 FP or Super Wheelspins for 150 FP each.
