Playground Games took the wraps off the first full expansion for Forza Horizon 3 today. Titled Blizzard Mountain, the official description is as follows:
The Blizzard Mountain Expansion for Forza Horizon 3 is coming Dec. 13 and bringing with it a Forza first – snow, ice, extreme elevations and blizzards to challenge players in their quest to become the King of the Mountain. Set amidst extreme alpine settings, players will explore a snowy mountain playground in eight new vehicles – including the 2016 Ford GYMKHANA 9 Focus RS RX – all in brand new race events that have been specifically designed for spectacular mountain racing.
Be aware, the FH3 Expansion Pass is separate from the Ultimate Edition and Season Pass though they are offering a $10 rebate on the Expansion Pass if you purchased the Ultimate Edition. You can read further details including the car list on Xbox’s official blog here.
Our Take
Storm Island in Forza Horizon 2 was an excellent addition so we hope this continues the excellent experience that FH3 has provided to date. It will be interesting to see how FH3 handles snow physics as it can be notoriously tricky to get right.
