Series 39 kicks off with Summer! As ever, we're bringing you all the news and events this week in the Great Britain of Forza Horizon 4.
Last series, series 38, was the start of the Forza Horizon Mixtape. Events now are reruns of old Forza favourites. This means there's no new cars, but opportunities to pick up some rarities. There is a new gift car: the VW Golf R in Horizon 5 livery, so check your inbox for that one. Let's take a look at the weekly events!
Summer Festival Playlist
The playlist rewards this week are the 2018 Honda Civic and the KTM X-Bow GT4. Earn these vehicles for 50% and 80% season completion respectively.
For the whole series, 50% earns you a backstage pass and 80% the Porsche 356 RSR. Don't miss the backstage pass, as the car list you can pick from is huge!
Forzathon Challenges
This week the Forzathon challenge is based around the 2005 TVR Sagaris. If you're just picking up a Sagaris, take a look at what you can buy with skill points on that car. There's a little surprise in there!
