Forza Horizon 3 is gaining a drastically different way of racing with the announcement of a new, mad-looking Hot Wheels expansion.

It brings a load of crazy Hot Wheels cars and tracks to the open-world racing game, adding an arcade-focused and even more manic, fast-paced side to FH3.

The new DLC is the second major expansion after the snowy Blizzard Mountain, debuting a new location in Australia.

Hot Wheels features six new themed islands off the coast of Australia, all connected by a series of new tracks full of loops, jumps, corkscrews and banked turns.

Alongside the pre-made circuits in the Hot Wheels expansion, there’s also a new Stunt Swap feature where you can modify stunt sections and send them to your mates.

It’s a whole new element for FH3, with added arcade-like additions such as boost pads, half-pipes and jumps to tackle. There’s even giant mechanical dinosaurs, for anyone interested.

The expansion comes with a new campaign, letting you complete events and work your way up to the Grand Finale at the huge Hot Wheels Goliath circuit.

You can, of course, tackle the Hot Wheels cars and tracks in multiplayer mode with your friends for chaos-filled online racing and a new skills-focused Playground Area.

Speaking of cars, it comes with 10 new ones, including some of the most famous Hot Wheels machines. One’s a mystery Barn Find, but here are the other nine cars confirmed:

  • 2011 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker
  • 2012 Hot Wheels Rip Rod

  • 2007 Toyota Hilux Arctic Trucks AT38
  • 2010 Pagani Zonda R
  • 1972 Chrysler VH Valiant Charger R/T E49

The DLC comes out on 9 May for Xbox One and Windows PC, and is $20 (£16) as a standalone purchase or $35 (£27) as part of the FH3 Expansion Pass, which also includes Blizzard Mountain.

There’s also a new update for Windows 10 players, including better support for popular driving wheels, CPU performance improvements, and added graphical options.

Am I the only one here that screamed in horror and pain when I saw this, I mean, I paid 10 bucks to drive some damn hot wheels and get eaten by a robotic dinosaur in a HORIZON game. Imma just go back and play the original, good Horizon 1, bye. And downvote me all you like, just voicing my opinion…

Yeah, down votes be damned but I fully agree. Forza has its basis in realism, I think this expansion sets a fairly bad precident for the future of the IP. I’m pretty disappointed that the Hilux AT38 is in this pack. I really want it but don’t want to spend money on this :(

Xbox just keeping rolling in the money. Forza Horizon as a series is dead to me. They had a really good platform to build on from the original. But now I’m no longer a fan.
