Forza has always been about bringing fans the best content, whether that's world debut cars like the Roll-Royce Wraith or track add-ons like Long Beach, Road America, and the Nürburgring."

"I loved setting up these two worlds for Forza," said director Adam Berg of Smuggler.

"We started in the narrow slot car landscape with its tilt/shift look, then we broke free from the expected boundaries in an explosion of dust and concrete, and drove through Italy with a 2014 Lamborghini Huracán. Not a bad way to spend a few days," he added.

IGN said, "

The first Forza Horizon set a new standard for open-world racing games, and Forza Horizon 2 has comprehensively updated that standard. The location is right, the car list extensive, the handling nuanced but accessible, and the visuals are excellent. Above everything it's always fun, whether you're in a ludicrous Land Rover race or sniffing out a hidden Barn Find. Forza Horizon 2 is Test Drive Unlimited, PGR, Smuggler's Run, and Forza Motorsport all crammed into a T-shirt cannon and fired into your face. It wears its inspiration on its sleeves but damn if that's not a killer combination.
