Forza Horizon 3’s Blizzard Mountain expansion slaps snow tires on year’s best racing game

Snow in December? That’s as mad as a kangaroo’s meat-axe, mate.

Microsoft and developer Playground Games are bringing winter weather to their excellent Forza Horizon 3 racing game for Xbox One and Windows 10 today. The Blizzard Mountain expansion introduces more than 50 new events in an all-new rocky terrain. Among the races, challenges, and hidden cars (all features that are in the base FH3), Playground is also debuting the Hill Climb, Descent, and Blizzard race events. These modes are ideal for many of the rally-race vehicles and 4-wheel trucks that were already in Horizon, but this add-on is of course bringing in some additional classics and modern supercars to get the job done.
