Winter has arrived in Forza Horizon 8 Series 8 and with it comes seven shiny new cars for players to earn and challenges to complete. This week’s Festival Playlist has a Photo Challenge and Treasure Hunt to conquer to keep you busy.
We’ve got everything you need to know in our complete guide to the Forza Horizon 5 Series 8 Winter Festival Playlist.
Forza Horizon 5 Series 8 Winter
Series 8 Winter starts at 3.30pm BST and runs from 09 June to 15 June.
Continuing the German Automotive Excellence theme, the two Season Progress cars are the Mercedes-AMG GT at 20 points and the #185 Porsche 959 rally raid car at 40 points.
These aren’t the only German cars up for grabs, however.
Reward cars
Five more German cars can be yours in Forza Horizon 5 Series 8 Winter. Completing The Trial rewards you with the 2012 Porsche 911 GT2 RS, while this week’s EventLab reward car is the 1982 Porsche 911 Turbo.
Yet another Porsche can be yours by completing the Modern Classics Seasonal Championship, which unlocks 2014 Porsche 911 Turbo. The other Road Show Seasonal Championship earns you the Mercedes-AMG Hammer Coupe.
Finally, finishing The Eliminator Battle Royale unlocks the Opel Manta 400.
Photo Challenge
In this week’s Photo Challenge, you need to photograph the 2015 Audi TTS Coupe at the Estadio Stadium. This rewards you with the Red Suit clothing item.
