Finally, news on Forza Horizon 5 DLC! Well, the leaks were true, Playground Games is returning to the Hot Wheels well next month, with the launch of Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels on July 19th.
In terms of what to expect, it looks rather similar for the Forza Horizon 3 DLC of the same name to be honest. Sure, it'll be bigger and broader just like the main game, but other than that, this is more Forza Hot Wheels action. Let's hope Expansion 2 brings something a little more unique when it launches sometime in the future.
Here's a developer rundown of what Hot Wheels will bring to Forza Horizon 5:
"The new Horizon Hot Wheels Park has some of the fastest, most extreme tracks ever in a Horizon game, including more than 200 kilometres (that’s around 125 miles for our non-metric friends) of twisting, looping iconic orange track. Explore a sprawling Hot Wheels open world with new driving experiences such as gravity defying magnet tracks as well as ice, water flume, and rumble tracks."
"We’ve also added four new biomes, including the rugged Giant’s Canyon; the Ice Cauldron where frozen tundra drips into the glistening molten lava; Forest Falls which takes you high above the tree canopy and over epic waterfalls, and finally, the visually stunning Horizon Nexus, where the Horizon Festival is suspended among a web of Hot Wheels tracks."
How do you feel about more Hot Wheels? Glad to see Forza revisit it? Let us know down below!

Looked so cool.
So.... LEGO is going to be the next one. Or maybe storm Island.
Looks great, excited to play!
It think this just goes to show they are just running out of ideas to mix things up and keep it fresh for the Horizon series, unless there’s been a demand that I’ve some how missed for another Hot Wheels DLC? I really doubt it’s the latter.
I’m honestly done with the Horizon series, it’s all about Motorsport for me now until I get sick of that and want another Horizon lol
My favourite announcement, FH3's Hot Wheels DLC was the best part of Forza and this has potential to be even better judging by the trailer and the blogpost.
Looks phenomenal and a big step up from the last one. Only thing I don’t like is having to wait another month!
@MaccaMUFC The Hot Wheels dlc for FH3 is one of my favorite dlc’s of all time for any game. I love that they’re dropping this dlc again for FH5. Guess it isn’t for everybody, though.
FH5 is my first horizon and I think it's great, never would have played it without gamepass, and I'll happily spend the money for the DLC, especially since my son enjoys forza even more than me.
@MaccaMUFC I think it makes sense since Forza Horizon 3 is not available for purchase and it's 30fps only (except on PC). This is probably the most popular Forza Horizon expansion and perhaps Microsoft have sorted out the licencing issues in order to have 5 available indefinitely.
