Forza Motorsport Multiplayer, Rivals and Challenge Hub Calendar for Update 13

[h2]Ford Mustang Challenge Series in Featured Multiplayer[/h2]
Experience the evolution of an automotive icon by jumping behind the wheel of your favorite Mustang era in a decade-spanning multi-class series. Unmissable Pony showdowns await in the Ford Mustang Challenge Series available in the Featured tab throughout Update 13.



There is also a new MX-5 Cup Spec Series. Ideal for beginners and veterans alike, the 2017 Mazda MX-5 Cup is built for single-make racing series, which makes it a thrilling contender in this specialized MX-5 Cup event.

Available under the Open Events tab is a new Cycled Class Series that rotates events daily between P, D, X, C, and E Classes. With the introduction of this series, which will remain available in the game after Mustang Month, players will get to experience a wider range of classes every week. In addition, the dedicated B, A, S, and R Class Series will continue to cycle weekly as before.



Update 13 also sees the first Community Choice selections as part of the Featured Multiplayer event rotation: GTX Sportscar Series, Forza Proto-H, and GTP/C Series. These events were decided on by player voting on the Forza forums; stay tuned for additional voting opportunities for the Community Choice Series in future updates.

This update also includes some additional changes to Featured Multiplayer. We have moved the weekly, cycled one-make series from the Spec tab to Featured tab, increased the race length of Medium races to target 18 minutes (previously 16 minutes), updated Tire Wear Scalar for all Short and Medium length races to 4x – making tire wear consistent across Short, Medium, and Long races, and we have updated the Multi-Class Series to focus solely on ABCS.



Here’s a look at the Featured Multiplayer calendar of upcoming events for Mustang Month:

Starting with Update 13, there will no longer be a Spotlight Series. This change will help improve concurrency across all other available Featured Multiplayer Series. We will continue to showcase Spotlight cars in Career, Rivals, and the Challenge Hub.



Following the release of Update 12, we made the decision to remove Forza GT4 from active Featured Multiplayer events due to the lack of cars and competitiveness within the series. In its place, the Forza Touring Car Spec Series remains available. In the future, we intend to explore alternatives to bring back Forza GT4 racing into Featured Multiplayer, for example, through a GT Multi-Class variation. We will also revisit the standalone Forza GT4 Series once we have a larger car roster to accommodate this Spec Division.

[h2]Pony Up in Steadfast Rivals Events[/h2]
Shave off every possible millisecond from your lap times in Rivals with new events for Mustang Month.



Featuring long straights and challenging banked turns, Sunset Peninsula Raceway is great for testing top speeds and mastering high-speed cornering. Just how fast can you complete a lap on the Full Circuit? That’s your challenge in this month’s Featured Rivals, which puts you behind the wheel of the classic 1982 Ford #6 Zakspeed Roush Mustang IMSA GT.

VIP Members can also show off their driving proficiency at Sunset Peninsula – this time on the Club Reverse Circuit – in the 2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE Forza Edition.



We also have a spooky new event just in time for Halloween. Take back the night in the 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat at Maple Valley in appropriately 'spooky' conditions. Successfully pass at least 100 Rivals on the leaderboard to unlock the Los Muertos Driver Suit from the Challenge Hub.

Buckle up for a new Legends vs Leaderboard Rivals event, this time with Mobil 1 Pro Driver Juan Pablo Montoya. Race the 1974 Toyota Celica GT at Maple Valley – Reverse Circuit and set a lap to get 50,000 credits! Head to mobil1gaming.com to see Juan Pablo set the lap and more.



As always, look out for Spotlight Rivals featuring the weekly Spotlight cars: the 2024 Ford Mustang GT, 1967 Shelby GT 500, 1995 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra R, and 2013 Ford Shelby GT500.

Update 13 is also the first time that Drift Rivals are available for competition. As noted above, while Drift 101, 102, and 103 events will always be available, future updates will also bring their own Drift Rivals – with A Class Drift and Mediterranean Drift available throughout Mustang Month.



Here’s a closer look at this packed Rivals calendar for Mustang Month:

[h2]Collect Your Rewards in the Challenge Hub[/h2]
We introduced the Challenge Hub in September alongside Mid-Engine Month in Forza Motorsport. Get ready for new objectives and rewards in Mustang Month with refreshed Featured Challenges and Weekly Challenges available for you to complete.



Credits, cars and race suits are all up for grabs in challenges available across Career, Featured Multiplayer and Rivals.

As a reminder, each update’s reward cars can be obtained by either completing the Featured Tour in Career or by playing a specified number of races in Featured Multiplayer – it’s your choice!
