The latest Forza Horizon 5 series update is all about High Performance. That means fast cars, a new and permanent race oval and the opportunity to set new speed records in returning PR Stunts.
Download the new Forza Horizon 5 series update starting on Tuesday, April 25 and you’ll be ready to jump into the High Performance content two days later from Thursday, April 27.
This version introduces some fixes to community reported issues in Forza Horizon 5 Rally Adventure:
- The 2001 #4 Ford Focus RS has been added to the Autoshow for reacquisition.
- An issue that caused the Arzate Sprint Challenge and Forest Trail Master to not be marked as completed has been resolved.
- Fixed an issue that prevented the Apex Predators “Let it B” mission from being completed.
- We’ve addressed an issue that saw the stock PI rating being shown in various menus and event leaderboards despite the player’s car being upgraded.
- Pinned Challenges showing unintendedly doubled requirements have been fixed.
- On PC, improvements have been made to performance degradation that occurred in two scenarios: while driving through the deformable sand dunes, and while driving the 2021 Audi RS e-tron GT.
- On Steam, we’ve fixed the mismatched achievements unlocked in the Xbox app.
In addition to those fixes, we continue to make improvements to the base Forza Horizon 5 experience using your feedback. Here are some of the fixes you can look forward to in this update:
- Requirements to bind ANNA and Forza LINK on the d-pad while creating Custom Controller Profiles have been removed.

- Festival site objects have been removed from select Race Routes as those couldn’t be shown to all players.
- An issue where roads would not be marked as discovered on the map has been fixed.
- Fixed an issue that caused Auction House searches filtered by “Car Type” to not return results.
- An issue that caused Forzathon Weekly Challenges to reset after a game restart has been fixed.
- On Xbox, the HUD is no longer stuck in the center of the screen if playing on an ultrawide display.
As always, we’ll share the full list of fixes in our release notes, which will be published once the update has been released.

This series, the Horizon Stadium has been transformed into Oval Circuit decorated with various Horizon race-inspired props. While this area can be fully explored in Free Roam for the High Performance series only, the track itself has been permanently added as a race route to the game.
Players can launch the Horizon Oval Circuit as a Road Racing event for solo, cooperative and competitive play, set their fastest leaderboard lap time on it in Rivals and even use it as a new EventLab build stub.
20 new accolades have been added for the Horizon Oval Circuit along with the new series car collector accolade. Check them out below:
In addition to the Horizon Oval Circuit, look out for the return of six returning PR Stunts with four Speed Traps including Horizon Baja, East Resort, Pantano Pass and Tulum, as well as two Speed Zones including Green Hills and River Run. These are visible on the map with a unique purple and blue hue icon. You’ll have to drive fast to get 3 stars in all of them as they’ll only be available until the end of the series.
In the second week of the Festival Playlist, smash through the Pinata Helmet Collectible found around the Horizon Festival Mexico to complete the “Safety First” challenge and unlock the “It is the way” chat phrase for Forza LINK. The Pinata Helmet prop has also been added to the EventLab Blueprint Builder, under the Gameplay category.
Players can unlock new Profile Badges based on the number of unique cars stored in their garage:
- Ghost Badge: Own 500 unique cars
- Blue Heart Badge: Own 600 unique cars
- T-Rex Badge: Own 700 unique cars
Please note that duplicate cars will not count towards unlocking these new Badges.
In addition, we’ve added a new feature to Character Customization which automatically adapts the color of a prosthetic or hearing aid to the character’s skin tone.
Explore the Horizon with exciting new Photo Mode improvements and unique overlanding modifications for select vehicles that will be essential for completing new Pathfinder accolades. We’ll have more to say about this Forza Horizon 5 update closer to its release in May, stay tuned!
