Forza Horizon Launch Trailer

Microsoft, Playground Games and Turn 10 Studios have released the Forza Horizon launch trailer. In addition, the launch trailer confirms the upcoming release of the Forza Horizon demo, which will be available to download on Xbox Live starting October 9th.

In the demo, players will get a chance to experience the Colorado of Forza Horizon, driving a number of different cars across a variety of different event types – from Horizon Festival events taking place in the dusty, dirt roads of the upper hills – to a climactic street race that find players winding up, around, and over the fictional Finley Dam.

Several of the events in the Forza Horizon demo will automatically become Rivals Mode events after completing them, allowing Forza fans to compete against one another to set the fastest time. In addition, players will be able to drive and explore a section of the overall game map to get a feel for the kinds of open-road adventure that is featured in the full version of Forza Horizon, which will be available on October 23rd.

All players who download the Forza Horizon demo and then purchase and play the full game will receive a specially designed custom 2013 SRT Viper GTS, which was designed to highlight Forza Horizon’s “gone-gold” status.
