Forza Horizon 2 - Xbox One
Forza Horizon 2 is the sequel to Forza Horizon, the arcade spin-off of the Forza Motorsport racing simulation games presented as an open world racing game. Transitioning to the next generation of Xbox, the two versions of the game largely share the same cars, assets, world and features, but were handled by different developers. Rather than upgrading or downgrading a version for the other platform, they each take a distinct direction based on the same concept and content.
Just like the original game the player participates in the Horizon Racing festival with light story elements. The first game's environment was based on Colorado, USA, and now the sequel draws inspiration from southern France and northern Italy, combined with off-road racing and small villages. By participating in events and championships cash is earned and the character levels up, gaining access to new cars and events, with 210 cars in total. Just like the original game exploring is encouraged to locate hidden cars, and experience and travel banners. Different racers you encounter can be challenged freely and various actions are rewarded with experience (for instance through beating speed traps) or skill points for precision and dangerous actions, especially when linked together in succession. These skill points can be spent on perks. New to this game is the Wheel Spin system where a random sum of money or a car is provided after leveling up.
