Take a spin on one of the most legendary tracks in Motorsport
Turn 10 Studios have announced today that they will be releasing the Road America track as the first track add-on update for Forza 5 and it won’t cost players a penny. The track will be introduced as a fully integrated addition into the game and will be automatically added into the career events section.
The infamous track includes high speed straights and tight, challenging turns and is one of the oldest and most distinguished tracks in North America, bought to life with the spectacular detail that the Xbox One offers.
Players will be able to race on the circuit in both main career events and career bonus events, which are available after a mini career series is completed.
If this wasn’t enough, for the first time ever, Road America will also feature four alternate ribbons that are designed to test the limits of a players skill. There are also new themed events in the Rivals Mode and in the multi-player lobbies.
