Forza Horizon 5 is gearing up for an electrifying new chapter with the launch of its "Midnight Muscle" update, set to debut on Tuesday.

This highly anticipated update promises to immerse players in a vibrant neon-themed experience, complete with new cars, decorations, and features that will enhance the overall gameplay.

At the heart of the "Midnight Muscle" update is the introduction of two exciting new muscle cars: the 2022 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock and the 1995 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra R.

These vehicles are not just eye-catching; they embody the spirit of American muscle, offering players the chance to race and customise some of the most iconic cars in automotive history.

Evolving World Features

The update will also bring back beloved Evolving World features, enhancing the game's dynamic environment.

Players can look forward to extended night cycles, which will create a more immersive atmosphere during races and events.
