Launching on March 27th, Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious is a stand-alone expansion to Forza Horizon 2 for Xbox One and Xbox 360.

Beginning on March 27th and continuing through April 10th, players can download the expansion on Xbox One or Xbox 360 at no charge. After April 10th, the expansion will cost $10, but players who downloaded it for free during the two-week window can continue to play without restriction.
In Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious, players will be recruited by Fast & Furious expert mechanic Tej Parker, voiced by Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, to source cars for the Fast & Furious crew’s next big mission. Players will take part in a series of car challenges set in the idyllic south of France, challenges inspired by both the Fast & Furious films and Forza’s gameplay.
As players complete game challenges, they will unlock new cars that can be added to their collection and can be driven throughout the open world in free roam play. Players will also be able to take photos of their favorite cars in Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious and share them with fellow Forza players via the official Forza Web site and the Forza Hub app on Xbox One.
