    The Forza Horizon 3 Hot Wheels Expansion is scheduled to arrive on May 9 for both Xbox One and Windows 10 PCs (Xbox Play Anywhere). It is included in the Forza Horizon 3 Expansion Pass or $19.99 as a standalone purchase. The team will also release a Forza Horizon 3 update on the same day, to include improved new support for numerous popular driving wheels, improved CPU performance, additional graphical options, and more.

    Below is a list of some of the new cars included in the expansion.
    • 1969 Hot Wheels Twin Mill
    • 2011 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker
    • 2012 Hot Wheels Rip Rod
    • 2005 Hot Wheels Ford Mustang
    • 2016 Jeep Trailcat
    • 2016 Zenvo ST1
    • 2007 Toyota Hilux Arctic Trucks AT38
    • 2010 Pagani Zonda R
    • 1972 Chrysler VH Valiant Charger R/T E49

    Check out the trailer here, along with more detailed information on the official website.

    This expansion lets players travel to a brand-new location in Australia, a place where lazy Sunday drives are replaced by insane high-speed stunts on miles of looping, banking, giant iconic orange Hot Wheels tracks. Starring famous Hot Wheels vehicles like the Twin Mill, the Rip Rod, and the Boneshaker, Forza Horizon 3 Hot Wheels promises an automotive adventure unlike anything in Forza history.

    Forza Horizon 3 Hot Wheels takes players to six new themed islands located off the coast of Australia; all connected by a network of Hot Wheels tracks – positioned hundreds of feet in the air – featuring classic Hot Wheels configurations like loops, corkscrews, and more. This is stunt driving at its most extreme, where you can master tracks by performing brand new Hot Wheels skills that make use of boost pads, high-bank turns, half-pipes, insane jumps, and even giant mechanical dinosaurs. If you’re looking to get creative, check out the new Stunt Swap feature to modify stunt track sections and dare your friends to try them.

    Explore the world of Forza Horizon 3 Hot Wheels in an all-new campaign, completing events on your way towards the ultimate stunt-driving test, an epic Grand Finale taking place on the massive new Hot Wheels Goliath circuit. Hook up with your buddies and compete in online multiplayer racing on Hot Wheels tracks, or find out whose skills reign supreme in a brand-new Playground Arena. Along the way you’ll earn 28 new Xbox Live achievements worth 500 Gamerscore.

          Pretty excited for this expansion. I just logged onto FH3 and didnt see the expansion anywhere. Has anyone been able to download it? Im assuming it will be out later today at some point.

                Anybody else? From what I've seen, looks like a lot of fun. Does it have much depth (for an expansion)?

                  I grabbed this a few days ago...It's not bad...I like blizzard or the main game better but it's a nice change of pace....driving the loop on the orange track is fun I have to admit.

                      Regarding the Blizzard Mountain: You just have to do a certain amount of festivals I think then it unlocks. I believe I had 2 and it wasn't unlocked and I opened up 1 more and that unlocked it.

                          I had kind of forgotten about this expansion. I had the pass, so it was waiting for me. Haven't played FH3 in a while though since I got into Fifa 17 for a bit, then back to F12016. Fired it up the other day and saw the prompt to check it out and download.


                          I ran a couple of races/events today in the expansion. It's kind of neat, but just... not really what I was hoping for. Maybe it will grow on me, but I was hoping for something taking place in another real world type of environment. I guess that's their plan though, one world based content expansion, one commercially sponsored. FH2 it was the Fast and Furious related content. I liked that one, because it was still true to the game content itself. This hot wheels one, just a bit too out there for me to really get into.
