The pack also includes five new iconic cars, plus a new barn find car. Players can head online to discover new content, including four new multilplayer Playground arenas, 20 unique online race routes, six Gauntlet events, three new Showdown events (accessible from the new Storm Island Car Meet location), and five online championship event types including Brawl, Rampage, Extreme Cross Country, Cross Country Circuit, and Mixed events. In addition to new event types, Storm Island will include new items and locations to explore – including new roads and bonus boards, a brand new Car Meet, new Bucket List challenges, new speed trap and speed zone leaderboards, and additional Rivals events. Victory will take a special combination of skill, bravery, and luck. Just completing a Gauntlet event is challenging enough. These point-to-point races are held only at night, and are long and dangerous – with minimal signage to guide players during the race. But how about multiple laps? In Cross Country Circuit events, players will be taking on those same challenges in multi-lap races that will test both their stamina and skill. One sprint in a Cross Country race will get players’ heart rates up.
With more extreme elevation changes, a variety of different terrain types, and strong storms to contend with, Storm Island’s Extreme Cross Country races are not for the faint of heart. Grab your favourite four-wheeled weapon and strap in for these off-road circuit races featuring extreme terrain, lots of obstacles to take advantage of, and new smashables to wreck.įans have played Cross Country events in Forza Horizon 2 but have never played them quite like this.
Rampage events are point-to-point off-road sprints, where the driver will contend with obstacles and smashables (including the brand new smashable chicanes) before crossing the finish line. The expansion features 90 new events with five new event types players can test their skills in, and all have been designed to bring the most out of both the driver as well as every vehicle in the game. New features like swaying trees in extreme windstorms and the rays of the sun cutting through thick fog bring the adventure of Storm Island to life in ways players have never experienced before. Storm Island has been built with the Forza Horizon 2 engine and infused with brand new technology that showcases the beauty of the world. It features the most severe weather conditions ever seen in a Forza game, including fierce tropical storms and thick fog that will add an entirely new level of challenge to the game. This expansion pack for Forza Horizon 2 features a new location to explore, the mysterious and foreboding Storm Island.
