Following the launch of the weighty Hot Wheels Expansion for Forza Horizon 3, Playground Games has released a significant update for the PC version of the game, introducing welcome changes to players running the game on lower specifications.

Today’s the day Forza Horizon 3 players start seeing a lot more orange, as the Hot Wheels Expansion is now available for the open-world racer.

Playground Games has just announced the second Forza Horizon 3 expansion — focusing on the beloved Hot Wheels brand — and it looks absolutely bonkers.

Whoops. After a leak back in January gave away a lot of the upcoming content for Forza Horizon 3, another hole has given us a look at upcoming content. The next car pack is set to be Porsche-themed, with a few surprises mixed in for good measure.

Virtual reality is becoming a mainstay feature within the video game industry, seemingly growing by the day. Last year Microsoft announced their own entry into the growing market, and with a starting price of $299 the company’s own efforts are sure to become the most affordable entry point, undercutting the likes of Sony’s PlayStation VR, HTC Vive, and Oculus Rift that dominate the market.

2016 was a great year for the Xbox brand, and the Redmond gaming team are looking back on the previous year – all while keeping a firm eye on what 2017 has in store for gamers on the platform.

Virtual Reality is quickly becoming a mainstay feature within the industry, and with Sony recently staking their own claim with PlayStation VR, Microsoft has decided to step in the ring with their own offering aimed at Windows 10 users.

Talk about being blind-sided: Turn 10’s Brian Ekberg has made it clear that racers with Windows 10 PC’s have more to look forward to with Forza Motorsport 6 Apex released earlier this year.

While it’s never the wisest idea to cheat one’s way to victory in an online-dependent game of any nature for fear of gross imbalances, Turn 10 have announced in the latest Week in Review that action is being taken against PC players, permanently banning them from what is arguably the backbone of Horizon 3 itself: online play.

Earlier this month saw the release of the Smoking Tire Car Pack, introducing 7 new rides to Forza Horizon 3 in addition to various bug fixes for Xbox One and Windows 10 users. October is looking to be an action-packed month for the maturing game as Turn 10’s Brian Ekberg details the second update being released later today.

The worldwide release of Forza Horizon 3 is weeks away, but those looking to venture into Playground Games’ rendition of the Australian Outback may not need to wait much longer.
