Drive the Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z in Forza Horizon 4
Snow may have painted the British landscapes, but that doesn’t slow down our Horizon Festival drivers. Winter is here, and this week’s featured car on the Festival Playlist is the 1990 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z, a car which celebrates the Camaro’s involvement in the International Race of Champions series, a one-make stock car series that put the focus on driver competition rather than car preparation.
Residing under this Camaro’s long, louvered hood is a 245 horsepower 5.7-liter V8, while thick anti-roll bars front and back help the Camaro achieve highly impressive skidpad numbers —around 0.90 lateral G-force. Camaro fans can unlock the IROC-Z by earning 50% Completion on the Festival Playlist, and experience performance that only this ultimate third generation Camaro can provide.
Here’s what’s available on this week’s Festival Playlist, available until Thursday, March 2:
SERIES REWARDS:
50% Completion – Horizon Backstage Pass
80% Completion – 1965 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupé
WINTER REWARDS:

Experience the Spectacular Corvette C8 in Forza Horizon 4
Welcome to Series 58 of Forza Horizon 4! We’re kicking off this one with a truly unmissable supercar that’s perfectly acquainted to the roads of historic Britain, the 2020 Chevrolet C8 Corvette Stingray.
The mid-engine C8 delivers less wheelspin, more control over the curves and is all-around faster. It achieves 0-60 a full second quicker than its predecessor, the C7, and its Z51 customization package includes an upgrade in performance with spoiler and bumper modifications.
The 2020 Chevrolet C8 Corvette Stingray brought forward a huge evolution for one of the greatest American sports cars. It was a gamechanger when it was first released in the real world, and now it’s literally changing the game in Forza Horizon 4.
Get yours by completing the Find New Roads Seasonal Championship, available until Thursday, February 16 alongside the other seasonal events and rewards featured on this week’s Festival Playlist:

Step Inside a Classic Porsche Race Car in Forza Horizon 4
Spring has blossomed in Forza Horizon 4 with the final week of Series 57 featuring a classic Porsche race car that’s just begging to be driven around the country roads of historic Britain.
Before we dive into the Festival Playlist, remember this is your final week to complete the Monthly Rivals and qualify for the Online Adventure roster, and to unlock the overall series rewards:
50% Completion: Horizon Backstage Pass
80% Completion: 1995 BMW 850CSi
Available through Thursday, February 9, here’s everything you can look forward to this week in Forza Horizon 4:
50% Completion: Horizon Backstage Pass
80% Completion: Patrol Outfit
Available to win in The Trial, which recreates the triple threat race of the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans, the 1966 Porsche 906 Carrera 6 was the last street legal racing car produced by Porsche. Not only was it a successful race car with victories in its class at the 24 Hours of Daytona, the 12 Hours of Sebring, Monza, and the Targa Florio, but the car was also a work of art with its tubular space frame and unstressed hand-laid fiberglass body, as well as an ultra-low profile.
The 906 weighed in at less than 1,300 pounds before adding fluids and is fitted with a 210-horsepower carbureted flat-six. Though only 65 models were produced to meet the FIA homologation standards, you can now recreate its legendary races or gaze in wonderment at the detail of its timeless design while taking it for a spin across the scenic British countryside.
Over in the Photo Challenge, capture any Extreme Offroad Car by The Great Ridge to unlock a Super Wheelspin. Godzilla is back with the 2017 Nissan GT-R featured in the Weekly Forzathon Challenge. While this car’s predecessor started a longstanding rivalry between Nissan and Porsche, the King of the Monsters certainly has a few surprises up its sleeve.
Commuter Blues is a Showcase Remix twist on The Flying Scotsman where you’ll be racing the iconic steam locomotive while behind the wheel of a 2019 Porsche Macan Turbo. Spring Games are on the menu with the hard-to-find 2018 MINI John Cooper Works Countryman available for simply participating.
Get your triple offering of Super Wheelspins in Seasonal PR Stunts. This week’s challenges include the Ambleside Edge Danger Sign, the Coombe Speed Trap and the Crescent Speed Zone.
It’s a battle of iconic car groupings in the Seasonal Championships. Get ready to race and unlock the 2018 Ford Mustang RTR Spec 5 that’s fitted with a unique custom widebody kit and a 460 horsepower Coyote V8 in Mustang vs. Mustang; the 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Super Sport 396 which features a rip-roaring four-speed option 375-horsepower V8 in Muscle vs. Import; and the unique, charmful and high-performant 1988 BMW M5 Forza Edition, a car that produces 286 horsepower through its naturally-aspirated inline-six engine in Touring Masters.
That’s a wrap on Series 57 at Horizon Britain, however the mixtape keeps going and you’ll have even more opportunities to score exclusive cars and cosmetic rewards once Series 58 rolls around. Until then, discuss everything Forza related on the official Forza Forums and we’ll see you at the Horizon Festival!
Drive True Performance in Forza Horizon 4 with the 2006 Koenigsegg CCX
Winter has arrived in Forza Horizon 4 as snow covers the countryside roads and landscapes of beautiful, historic Britain. Be cautious of those slippery icy roads – we recommend fitting snow tires to be safe – and don’t forget to stop by the frozen-up Derwent Water, which gives drivers a chilly playground to explore. You might even stumble upon a hidden Barn Find and a unique Drag Race.
Once you’ve put on some Winter clothes and upgraded your cars for the weather conditions, get ready to experience the 2006 Koenigsegg CCX, which produces over 800 horsepower through the company’s own 4.7-liter supercharged V8 and bears the name of the Swedish manufacturer’s founder, Christian von Koenigsegg. With a carbon-fibre body that combines a sleek, clean Scandinavian design devoid of unsightly spoilers, the CCX is truly a wonder to behold and can be yours to drive in Forza Horizon 4.
Here are this week’s rewards available through Thursday, February 2:
50% Completion: Horizon Backstage Pass
80% Completion: 2006 Koenigsegg CCX
Jump into your favorite car and capture it by the Scott Monument in Edinburgh to complete this week’s Photo Challenge and unlock a Super Wheelspin.
It’s a battle of the brands in the Weekly Forzathon Challenge. As top contenders in the German executive saloon car market, choose between either the 2005 BMW 3 or the 2006 Audi RS4.
It’s All About Me in The Trial this week – win an exclusive emote by taking on The Triumvirate alongside your Convoy versus a team of Unbeatable Drivatars. Participate in the Winter Games to unlock the 2018 MINI X-Raid John Cooper Works Buggy.
Unlock a triple serving of Super Wheelspins from the latest Seasonal PR Stunts. These include the Mudkickers’ Showjump Danger Sign, the Calton Hill Speed Trap and the Oldweir Speed Zone.
This week’s rewards in the Seasonal Championships include the 2010 Audi TT RS Coupé in Getting Cold Street, the street legal 2010 BMW M3 GTS track car in Power Struggle and the extremely rare 1967 Volkswagen Type 3 1600 L “Notchback” with its low profile “pancake” engine in Magic Number.
Join us for the first Forza Monthly and Let’s Go livestreams of the year!
We’ll be checking out the Japanese Automotive update for Forza Horizon 5 including a test drive of the new Festival Playlist reward cars, while Chris Esaki from Turn 10 Studios will discuss the latest Forza Motorsport news from Developer_Direct.
Unleash True Hypercar Power in the 2019 Bugatti Divo
Autumn arrives in beautiful, historic Britain as the trees begin to shift in color and their falling, brown-tinted leaves scatter the roadsides. Though we don’t expect them to remain there for long once Festival drivers zoom by in their spectacular 2019 Bugatti Divo, an AWD track-focused hypercar capable of 236mph.
While the Divo sacrifices the Chiron’s immense top speed of 248mph, it instead produces 198 lbs. of additional downforce over its predecessor and features a prominent rear wing. These investments in improved driving dynamics result in increased handling, braking, and agility. While only 40 were built and immediately sold out in the real world, this week is your chance to add the Divo to your Forza Horizon 4 garage.
The all-wheel drive Divo, with its distinctive looks and 8-liter quad-turbocharged engine capable of 1479-horsepower, can be unlocked on the Festival Playlist before Thursday, January 26:
50% Completion: 1968 Pontiac Firebird
80% Completion: 2019 Bugatti Divo
Fitted with a “400 Ram Air II” engine, the rear-wheel drive 1968 Pontiac Firebird marked Pontiac’s entry into the pony car market. It’s capable of producing 335 horsepower, while its body and structure was largely like the Camaro with clean, classy lines and only a cold-air-breathing head scoop to indicate that this car will fly down any drag strip.
This week’s Photo Challenge invites you to capture an image of your car with two other Players or Drivatars in front of the Festival Mainstage. The Weekly Forzathon Challenge spotlights an intimidating competitor in the 2013 MINI X-Raid All4 Racing Countryman, specifically designed to beat its rivals in the Dakar Rally.
Team up with other players and form a formidable team to take on Unbeatable Drivatars in The Trial. Choose any of the legendary Holy Trinity cars – the 2013 McLaren P1, the 2013 Ferrari LaFerrari, or the 2014 Porsche 918 Spyder, and lead your team to victory to step into the future of driving with the 2019 Rimac Concept Two. As the world's most powerful hypercar, the four liquid-cooled magnet synchronous motors of the 1,914-horsepower Croatian built all-electric machine results in astonishing all-wheel drive performance with acceleration of 0-60mph in 1.85 seconds and 0-186mph speeds in 11.8 seconds.
Take on a motocross team behind the wheel of a 1958 Austin-Healey Sprite MkI in the Forest Sprite Showcase Remix to win a Super Wheelspin. Over in the Autumn Games, the 1986 Hoonigan Ford RS200 Evolution with its 750-horsepower, 2.1-liter turbocharged inline-four engine can be yours just for participating,
Three Super Wheelspins are up for grabs in this week’s Seasonal PR Stunts, which include the Broadway Windmill Danger Sign, the Princes Street Speed Trap and the Bridlewood Speed Zone.
Seasonal Championships include the 2009 Vauxhall Corsa VXR in Old Habits Die Hard, the 1996 Ferrari F50 GT in Supercar Showdown and the 2011 Ford FG Falcon in Special Performance.
