All Forza Horizon 5’s Rare, Time-Limited Cars Have Been Added for Purchase In-Game

All of Forza Horizon 5’s remaining time-limited bonus cars have today been added to its store, where they can be purchased with in-game vouchers. Forza Horizon 5’s Festival Playlist system previously added new, free cars to the game every week since the game’s Xbox and PC launch in November 2021. However, while the cars were free, they were admittedly only ever available for a limited time – and required players to complete a series of events or challenges over the course of a week (or month) to earn. The themed, monthly Festival Playlists began to be repeated in early 2025, giving us a chance to collect cars we may have missed previously. We’ve also been able to unlock some of them from a curated selection of rare cars voted for by players by exchanging vouchers that can be redeemed or earned each week. However, today all of the remaining cars that had not already made it into the ‘Horizon Backstage’ store have been made available. Players will now be able to complete their car collections, and pick up cars they may have potentially been waiting years to become available again. The good news comes ahead of the arrival of Forza Horizon 6 in May. If you’re after information on that, you can check out our complete March IGN First dive into Forza Horizon 6, including our discussion on the crafting of the world, the new open-world events, a close-up on seasons, our look at the game’s new customisation options and crazier-than-ever Forza Edition cars, and a glimpse of its new, community-inspired Horizon Rush events. Luke is a Senior Editor on the IGN reviews team. You can track him down on Bluesky @mrlukereilly to ask him things about stuff.
