Here we are a day late (apologies, #lifehappens) with the Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon May 2-9th event. As usual, you can earn an extra 100 (or 200 with the VIP house) #Forzathon Points, this time in a Sports Utility Hero vehicle! This Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon event started May 2nd at 7:30 a.m. PT and closes at 7:30 a.m. PT on May 9th. In addition to the new #Forzathon events, there are also a number of new seasonal races (including extra Fortune Island Seasonal races) and PR stunts.
Forza Horizon 4 has been out for some time now with its updated #Forzathon format. Playground Games and Turn 10 Studios have also made it easier to track the weekly events with the new Festival Playlist. Also, don’t forget about the new Achievements, many of which are #Forzathon related.
If you haven’t purchased the game yet, you can do so from the button below or play it through the Xbox Game Pass.
Festival Playlist/Spring Season
With the Spring Season back underway, there are new rewards for completing both the Festival Playlist and the Horizon Spring Season. For the Playlist, once you complete 50% over the next four seasons, you’ll snag an Alfa Giulia FE. Complete 80% of the seasonal objectives, you’ll snag the Crown Victoria. As for the Horizon Spring Season, 50% completion will snag you the 2009 Vauxcorsa while 80% (reduced from 100% in a recent patch) completion — tasks, races, PR Stunts, Season Events, and Trials on Great Britain (not Fortune Island) — will net you the Rabbit Outfit.
