In the latest episode of Forza Monthly, Playground Games discussed the Forza Horizon 5 series update, starting next week on 25th April.

As part of this, there'll be a new 'High Performance' content update, coming a few days later on 27th April. To cut to the chase, High Performance will add a "permanent race oval" to the Horizon Stadium. As noted by the team, the last time something like this was featured in the series, was in the Horizon 4 Lego Expansion.

Here's a bit about what to expect, along with a look:

"This series, the Horizon Stadium is transformed into an Oval Circuit decorated with various Horizon race-inspired props. While this area can be fully explored in Free Roam for the High Performance series only, the track itself has been permanently added as a race route to the game.

"Players can launch the Horizon Oval Circuit as a Road Racing event for solo, cooperative and competitive play, set their fastest leaderboard lap time on it in Rivals and even use it as a new EventLab build stub."

In addition to this, 20 new accolades are being added for the Horizon Oval Circuit. This update will also include a series of fixes, which you can read about in detail on the Forza website. You can also check out this month's live stream on YouTube.

Looking forward to tearing up the oval circuit? Comment below.
