Turn 10 has revealed what fans can expect from the Collector’s Edition of Forza Horizon as well as the pre-order incentives.
Pre-orders of Forza Horizon today will receive exclusive content in both Forza Horizon and in Forza Motorsport 4. You will immediately receive a special code you can use to download a 2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 in Forza Motorsport 4, complete with a custom Forza Horizon livery created by the Forza community team.
We do not know at this time if any South African retailers will be participating in the promotion, but we will check with Microsoft SA. For the rest, the participating stores that Turn 10 has listed include: GameStop, Best Buy, Amazon in the U.S.; Game, GameStation, and Amazon in the U.K.; and GameStop, Media Saturn, and Amazon in the rest of Europe.
The 2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 will get you in to events and contests in Forza Motorsport 4, including Rivals Mode events and hoppers, as well as photo and video contests, all starring the Horizon-themed SRT8 Challenger.
Pre-order takers will also be able to download an exclusive car in Forza Horizon at launch.
The pre-order exclusive cars include:
2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG — While Mercedes doesn’t refer to the new SLS AMG as the “Gullwing”, it is absolutely the return of the famed automotive icon. With more than 560 horsepower, the SLS AMG is a track tamer nearly without equal, and its classic, sophisticated lines will attract car lovers of every stripe.
2010 Ferrari 458 Italia — A new Ferrari is always cause for celebration, and you can still hear the cheers from fans of the 458. Little wonder: the Prancing Pony went above and beyond the call with this gorgeous example of road-devouring art. The 458 produces 562 horsepower and a top speed over 200 mph, giving it the kind of performance you normally only see on the world’s greatest race tracks.
2012 Aston Martin Virage — Plush luxury meets frightening performance in the 2012 Aston Martin Virage. Comfortable enough for a long Sunday drive, yet sporting a blistering 490 horsepower V12, the Virage continues Aston Martin’s legacy of creating cars that are much more than their elegant exteriors bely.
2010 Nissan 370Z — Once again, Nissan has delivered a car that can compete with models ten times its price. The 370Z features grippy handling and drift-worthy rear wheel drive, motivated by a 3.7-liter, V6 with more than enough juice to excite even the most die-hard of sports car enthusiasts. In short, the 370Z can do it all.
The Forza Horizon LCE will include the following content:
- Custom cover design
- Custom-designed Steelbook™ packaging
- Horizon Festival ticket to access exclusive Xbox LIVE content
- Day 1 Add-on Pack with 5 cars
- VIP Membership & Car Pack (more details soon)
