DLC appears to be in testing, according to a Xbox flight tracker
The first DLC expansion for Forza Horizon may be revealed soon.
That’s according to Aggiornamenti Lumia, a Twitter account that tracks the Xbox Insider Hub, which often features apps for products and expansions that haven’t been revealed.
According to Aggiornamenti Lumia: “Microsoft has started testing WOODSTOCK_DLC_FLIGHT through the Xbox Insider Hub”
Woodstock was the internal codename for Forza Horizon 5, meaning that it’s likely that the first expansion will be revealed soon.
The Forza Horizon 5 Expansions Bundle which, according to its listing on the Xbox Store: “includes two game expansions when they become available. Each expansion will introduce a new location, vehicles and gameplay.”
Forza Horizon 4‘s Expansion Bundle included the Fortune Island and Lego Speed Champions game expansions.
Fortune Island saw players travel to a mountainous island filled with tough terrain. The expansion features the single largest mountain road in the history of the Horizon series. It also added 10 cars, which could be used in the main game.
Lego Speed Champions added the Lego valley, a new location in the game in which most of the environment was made of Lego. This expansion added 5 Lego versions of popular cars, several of them based on real Lego sets.
It’s currently unclear where the expansion will be set, but if it’s following the release cadence of Forza Horizon 4, it’s likely that the first piece of DLC will be a smaller region similar to the main game.
The Forza series has worked in collaboration with Lego and Hotwheels in previous expansions.
Lego is currently working on an open-world Lego racing game currently in development at WWE 2K22 studio Visual Concepts, VGC understands.
