Racing game fans on the Xbox One (and 360) can look forward to another free title next month. As part of the Games With Gold program, the original Forza Horizon will be free to all players with an active XBL Gold subscription.
Forza Horizon arrived on the Xbox 360 in 2012, taking the Forza franchise in a new, open-world direction. This new approach brought with it a smaller car list than the Motorsports series: 136 cars were available at launch, swelling to just over 200 with all DLC included.
The game also marked a few innovations for the franchise. It was the first Forza title with dynamic time of day, now a mainstay in the Horizon series. The game brought rally racing to the over-arching Forza series via a dedicated expansion pack as well.
Undoubtedly a planned tie-in with Horizon 3’s launch later on in September, FH1 is the second free arcade open-world driving game this summer (The Crew was another GWG title back in June). This is the first 360-era Forza title to join the Backwards Compatibility program: here’s hoping FM4 isn’t far behind…
Forza Horizon will be available to download for free for all XBL Gold members from September 1–15, on both Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

So happy with this! Amazing to see how much Forza has on offer this generation, compared to GT.
I’ve been waiting for this, nice.
My body is ready.
If only you could play Gran Turismo back to #1 on PS4…I know, I’m dreaming…
I don’t remember if I moved all of my saves over to the cloud prior to selling my 360 to finance my Xbox One purchase. Oh well, it’ll still be fun to play it again.
I’ve had the game on disc, and bought all the dlcs for it.
I wonder if the dlcs will carry over too with the free game…
Yes they will. After queuing up the game to download, hit start (or menu, whatever the triple line button is called), go to Manage game and all your purchased DLC will be there to add to your download list.
how i upload my fh1 save to the xbox one?
On the 360 move thesave file to the cloud. Done.
That’s good, looking forward to it
