Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious

Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious is a stand-alone expansion to Forza Horizon 2. It doesn’t require the base version of the game to work. Playground Games, a studio that cooperated with Turn 10 and Universal Pictures, developed X360 and XONE version of the game. The latter provided source materials for the developer.

Plot

The X360 and XONE version of the expansion takes place before the events presented in Furious Seven. The player assumes the role of a French driver hired by Tej Parker – a character known from the movie. He was played by Chris “Ludacris” Bridges. The main task is to deliver him selected cars that first must be won in races.

Mechanics

Just like the base version of the game, the expansion enables the player to participate in races scattered across a large, open world in southern France. The area is much smaller than in Forza Horizon 2. New cars are obtained by participating in various racing challenges in a few modes known from the core game. Nitro system is a novelty – it can be used during some races. The title also offers completely new wishlist challenges and 20 new premium plates to find.

Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious for X360 and XONE offers a dedicated set of cars from Furious Seven and previous entries in the movie saga. The player can drive 10 cult vehicles like 1970 Dodge Charger R/T, 2012 Nissan GT-R, 1998 Toyota Supra, 1970 Plymouth Ghibli S and 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. Each car was recreated based on materials provided by the moviemakers from Universal Pictures. Contrary to the core game, the expansion doesn’t offer customization.

The expansion also offers a few online multiplayer modes via Xbox Live. The graphics are similar to ones in base game, which means that they are of high quality.
