The wait is finally over! The first (and most entertaining, in my opinion) Forza Horizon 5 expansion is here. Take your racing skills to the limit with unique and colorful race tracks, exciting landscapes, and shiny new cars. Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels. Drivers and creators out there, this is for you.
A new Horizon Hot Wheels Park is now available above Mexico's clouds. Design, build, and share your own Hot Wheels adventure with over 80 distinct, snappable track pieces. Race ten unique new cars, including the lightning fast 2021 Hennessey Venom F5 and the iconic 2000 Hot Wheels Deora II.
Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels comes in the Forza Horizon 5 Premium Add-ons Bundle, Premium Edition, and Expansions Bundle. If you don’t happen to have any of those bundles, you can purchase the standalone Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels expansion directly for $19.99.
Players who own the above bundles can start their journey by locating the Hot Wheels Expedition icon by Mexico’s Gran Caldera (in the north on the Mexico map). Once completed, Hot Wheels Park will be accessible through the Pause Menu or by Fast Traveling to any of the Hot Wheels Park events. Fast Traveling in Hot Wheels Park is free and available immediately.
Here is an overview of what’s coming in the Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels expansion:
New Biomes + Tracks
Hot Wheels Park features a ton of new and diverse biomes: from the rugged Giant’s Canyon; to the tundra dripping into the molten lava in the Ice Cauldron; to the tree canopy towering above epic waterfalls in Forest Falls; and all brought together under the exhilarating Horizon Nexus, where the Horizon Festival is suspended among the interconnected Hot Wheels tracks.
But we didn’t just stop there with new biomes. We’ve introduced new track types – 212 kilometers (131 miles) of Hot Wheels tracks, to be precise – to make your Hot Wheels experience unlike anything else.
Become a Hot Wheels Legend
You’ll need to prove that you can master the extreme speeds of Hot Wheels Park before progressing onto faster and faster car classes. In addition, the Hot Wheels Academy introduces a new progression system divided into five tiers with rewards, events, and Missions associated with each.
A new Horizon Story: Hot Wheels
A History of Speed features five chapters, unlocked alongside your Hot Wheels Rank, taking you on a comprehensive journey of the history of Hot Wheels as you perform fun stunts and challenges along the way.
Race your friends and the community
In a first for the franchise, you can join friends and play the entire expansion from the beginning in co-op, including the introductory Hot Wheels Expedition.
Create your own Hot Wheels adventure in EventLab
The Hot Wheels Creation Kit features over 80 track and stunt pieces that can be instantly snapped together. We didn’t just stop there. Blueprints created on the base game’s Mexico map that utilize Hot Wheels props can even be played by non-expansion owners.
