If you play Forza Horizon 2 on the Xbox One,->ke4786 then I have some good news for you. The Playground Select Car Pack is finally here, and it includes some pretty cool cars to customize and cruise around in. The pack includes the 2015 Volvo S60 Polestar, 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona Hemi, 1997 McLaren F1->ke1159 GT, the 1978 Ford Mustang->ke428 II King Cobra and the 1952 Fiat->ke30 8V Supersonic. Don’t worry Honda->ke34 fans – a 1986 Civic Si is included in the pack as a free car. If you don’t feel like buying another car pack just yet, don’ worry because you don’t have to.

Gamescom 2015 is currently underway, and in celebration of that, Forza->ke3733 is offering the car pack free of charge until August 11, 2015. Don’t rush right to the Xbox Marketplace to get it, though, as it isn’t available there. To download the free pack, you must go through the Forza Hub app. In the app, you’ll see a button for the Playground Select Car Pack that will lead you to the area where you can redeem and download the pack. If you haven’t purchased the game yet or aren’t able to download it in time, you can purchase it for $5.00 in the marketplace after August 11th.

Why it matters

I’ve already taken advantage of getting the car pack for free, and I must say it is well worth the $5.00 you’ll be asked to pay after the 11th. I’m impressed with the quality and detail that went into all of the models in this car pack. Naturally I love the classics,->ke503 so the first car I jumped on was the ’69 Charger,->ke218 and I went after 1978 King Cobra next. Both cars were incredibly fun to play with, and who knows how many times I’ll go back to change my customizations. On top of the great models, you can’t beat getting it free. Have you downloaded the car pack yet, and if so, which car do you like best? Upload a picture of your customized ride to share your unique designs with me. Who knows - maybe I’ll catch you online one of these days.
