As the snow falls upon the German Automotive Excellence series with Forza Horizon 5 and we gear up for expansion news, Thursday brings us back to the dry season.
The cars you can earn this week through the Festival Playlist are the Mercedes Benz AMG GT S 2015 for 20 points, and the Porsche #185 959 1985 for 40 points.
High Jump
The Treasure Hunt this week named “High Jump” contains the clue “Couped Up? Let’s up the ante by seeing the Heights of Mulegé!”
This is obtainable with the Mercedes-AMG C 63 S Coupé 2016 and requires you to gain at least one star in the Heights of Mulegé Danger Sign.
The Danger Sign can be found to the north of Mulegé, just off the motorway and up a dirt path.
Upon completion, you should get a popup alongside an orange circle appearing to the east of Mulegé.
The treasure chest can be found on top of a dirt mound next to the abandoned church, in the centre of the Sierra Verde Dam location. Simply smash into this chest, and the treasure is yours.
PHOTO CHALLENGE #PITCHPERFECT
This week’s Forza Horizon 5 Festival Playlist photo challenge, #PITCHPERFECT, requires you to take a photo of the Audi TTS Coupé 2015 at the Estadio Horizon.
This stadium is located just to the south-west of Guanajuato.
Simply drive up stadium, open the camera app by using up on the D-pad and tap A to snap the picture to gain the rewards.
Upon completion, the Red Suit reward is yours. You can equip this by visiting your home, and selecting Customise Character in the My Festival tab.
