First off, happy 4th of July if you’re in the states! Here we are with the Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon July 4-11th event. This week you can earn an extra 100 (or 200 with the VIP house) #Forzathon Points — this time in a Retro Supercar of your choosing! This Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon event started today, July 4th, at 7:30 a.m. PT and closes at 7:30 a.m. PT on July 11th. 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.
If you haven’t purchased the game yet, you can do so from the button below or play it through the Xbox Game Pass. Speaking of, if you haven’t upgraded to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate yet, there’s still time to upgrade your entire current Xbox Live Gold and/or Game Pass (up to 36 months) for only $1.
Festival Playlist/Summer Season
It’s winter again and, as usual, there are rewards for completing both the Festival Playlist and the Horizon Summer Season. For the Playlist, once you complete 50% over the Summer to Spring seasons, you’ll snag the Bugatti T35 C. Complete 80% of the seasonal objectives, you’ll snag the Legendary I Beat the Stig Tee. As for the Horizon Summer Season, 50% completion will snag you the Legendary Alien Morph Suit while 80% completion — tasks, races, PR Stunts, Season Events, and Trials on Great Britain (not Fortune Island) — will net you the MC12 Forza Edition vehicle.
