Day 1 bonus cars for previous games you've played.

Do they appear in game automatically or do you have to have the previous games installed?

Horizon 1 was a 360 game so I think it picks it up from purchased and played games in your profile.

Cool, should be a nice bonus next Friday!

I noticed my xbox was downloading an update to my preinstall today. It makes me laugh how often these games need updates, I can't even play it yet and it's being patched.

The game will be playable at midnight on 5th or 9th November, depending on whether you got the standard game or premium with early access. It's a rolling midnight launch everywhere.

I'll be firing it up at midnight I think!

Been invited to play this at the Top Gear test track/studio on Saturday pre-release with LG, should be fun!

Lucky sod!

Anyone else playing yet, in 'New Zealand'?

[smithyithy]

I'll be playing this evening, leaving the office not a second later than I need to

I saw PC players on Reddit using Kiribati as a timezone as it's an hour ahead of even New Zealand!

I’ve been playing for the past week - it’s brilliant. Improves on FH4 nicely in terms of handling and drifting, and the world is just stunning (and a lot bigger than the UK). It’s not exactly a revolution but it’s bloody good…

Silly question is it available on One S? Or just the new generation?

Failrace video of FH5, messing about with the Delorean.

It's on both One and Series consoles Hombre

Is it possible to upgrade the base Gamepass version to get the extras and the early unlock? I can only see that you have to buy the ultimate version outright.

Yes, you need the premium upgrade bundle. £35

I've taken the liberty of setting up the Pistonheads club [PSTN].

I may have booked tomorrow and Monday off to have a run at this, with the Late Brake Show Tour on Saturday as a break

Anyone know when you can play this in the U.K.?
I keep getting told I’m too early.

Moot point as I have to work now..
