IGN First: Forza Horizon 2 Announced
Share.
Open-world racing sequel heading to Xbox One and Xbox 360 this fall.

By Ryan McCaffreyIt’s time to crank up the stereo and hit the open road once again, as Microsoft has announced Forza Horizon 2, the next installment in their flagship racing series. Forza Horizon 2 is in development for Xbox One and Xbox 360 and due for release this fall.

The racer follows 2012’s critically acclaimed franchise spinoff Forza Horizon for Xbox 360 and 2013’s frontline Xbox One launch game Forza Motorsport 5. Development is being handled primarily by Horizon 1 studio Playground Games, though the team is collaborating closely with the Motorsport team at Turn 10 Studios; the two teams share a technology pipeline as well as select key personnel.

Hello, Lambo.

“[Turn 10 and Playground] share this belief that we can create a true home for racing fans on Xbox One,” said Horizon 2 creative director Ralph Fulton.

In making the leap to Xbox One, Forza Horizon 2 will include hundreds of cars, according to Playground Games, headlined by the 2015 Lamborghini Huracán. A long-awaited weather system will also make its Forza debut, while Forza 5’s Drivatar system is also being adapted for Horizon 2.


Contrary to recent rumors, it won’t take place in the bayous of Louisiana...

As for the game’s setting? Contrary to recent rumors, it won’t take place in the bayous of Louisiana. Instead, the game will take place in gorgeous Southern Europe, leading to, in Fulton’s words, “incredible diversity” and “amazing vistas.” Music will again play a big part in the game, and a music festival will be the central event around which the game’s activities revolve.

Extensive improvements and features are in store for Horizon 2, which IGN will showcase throughout June as part of our brand-new IGN First initiative. We traveled to Playground Games in the UK and brought back a (metric!) ton of content that we’re excited to share with you all month long, including tomorrow’s full preview of our hands-on time with the game.

That sound you hear in the distance is the sound check for another music festival and the revving up of supercar engines…

Good old Turn 10 waiting for the ex Bizarre group to create the weather system. Cant wait for them to tack it on for Forza 6.

Are Netflix and Hulu free to use on Xbox now? They said sometime in June

What? They are 100% able to use with your xbl account?

 

[blakep267]

Also horizon 2 is being developed on the xb1 primarily by playground and another studio is doing the 360 port. So while it's crossgen, the development is mainly xb1

 

[djyoung08]

Not needing a gold subscription for netflix and hulu =/= free to use

 

[hadowajp]

Who doesn't have Xbox live anyway

Exactly.

 

[blakep267]

It's more for the 360. If they drop the price to $99, it's a great, cheap streaming box, that you can occasionally play games on if you like.

Forza horizon is the best racing game that i've played.
I believe that the sequel will be a system seller.

FH2 makes me anxious to pick up an X1. I hope they do a kinect-less bundle with this game and maybe Forza 5.

I bought it for Titanfall but I haven't played that in about 2 months so I'll probably let me subscription run out until Gears drops unless something else with MP sparks my interest.

It's worth the $3 a month just for the free games

I heard good things about that Max game so maybe I'll try that. When does it drop for free?

 

[djyoung08]

They're supposed to announce the free xb1 game dates "soon"

 

[antidope]

Wait COD is free right now?

 

[noblekane]

If they do that, I'll be itching to cop.

The titanfall bundle for $400 almost made me jump.
