Forza Horizon 2 for X360 and XONE is a sequel to the spin-off of Forza Motorsport series. Similarly as its predecessor, the game presents a slightly less serious approach to racing. The Xbox 360 version was powered by the same engine as the one used in the previous installment in the series. It was developed by Sumo Digital, studio known mostly for Broken Sword: The Angel of Death and the new installments of the racing series Outrun. The fathers of the original series, Turn 10, contributed to the creation of the game.

In contrast to the first Forza Horizon, the second game takes place not in the Colorado State of USA, but in Southern Europe. The area is filled with beautiful landmarks and the main theme of the races is once again a techno-cultural festival. The player can travel through a varied sandbox world by using luxury vehicles like Lamborghinis, Nissans and Fords.

Forza Horizon Game Series

The open-world racing game series, which was born in 2012 as a spin-off of the series Forza Motorsport. Initially, it remained somewhat in the shadow of its older sister, but after a few years it came to the forefront and became one of the most important exclusive titles in Microsoft's catalog. Suffice it to say that Forza Horizon 5 broke the record for the number of players playing simultaneously on the day of release in the publisher's games (more than 4.5 million people). Hand in hand with the excellent sales go the very high ratings received in reviews by subsequent parts of the series. Overseeing the brand since its inception is the British studio Playground Games, in cooperation with the Turn 10 Studios team (authors of Forza Motorsport).

A stand-alone expansion to the bestselling racing game Forza Horizon 2. The expansion was developed by Turn 10 in cooperation with the creators of the film franchise Fast and Furious. Its main objective is to promote the seventh installment of this very popular movie series. In the game the player assumes the role of a driver hired by Tej Parker, a character known from the movies (played by Ludacris). He must deliver selected cars to his employer. The mechanics of the game are similar to the ones from the original Forza Horizon 2. The main difference is the option to use nitro during some races. The player can participate in series of races by using 10 cars from Furious 7 and previous movies. Among them there are Dodge Charger R/T, Nissan GT-R and Toyota Supra. Each car was recreated in detail based on the materials obtained from the creators of the film.

Forza Horizon 2 is a solid open-world racing game that takes Forza's slavish devotion to car culture in a friendlier direction.
