The most interesting addition, though, is two Quartz Regalia models taken right from Square Enix’s Final Fantasy XV game. You could already drive the iconic Halo Warthog in Forza Horizon 4, and this new crossover with the popular J-RPG series is some pretty cool fan service.

“These two Final Fantasy XV vehicles will both be available to earn as gameplay rewards starting after the Summer season change on February 14,” wrote Forza community manager Brian Ekberg. “In the future players can look forward to more cars coming into Forza Horizon 4, including community favorites like the 1994 Honda Prelude Si and the 1994 Nissan Fairlady Z Version S Twin Turbo,” he continued.
If you haven’t played it yet, Forza Horizon 4 is free to play with Xbox Game Pass. For a limited time, you can get two months of subscription for just $2 instead of $19.99, and enjoy a catalog of over 100 Xbox One and Xbox 360 games.

Pretty cool for those that liked or are fans of Final Fantasy XV. A very uncommon partnership but an exciting one none the less. I do find it strange that, at least for the car, Square Enix didn't go to GT/Sony for a partnership, but I'm sure Square Enix has their reasons.

Seems they are available to use now from what I can find. So strap in and give them a whirl!

 

[jshackles]

Cool!

 

[TGO]

Okay

 

[Wonko_C]

I swear I already drove the FFXV car 3 months ago in FH4, or was that in 3?

I don’t want Final Fantasy cars in my GT Sport. Makes much more sense for something like Horizon.

 

[splattered]

Wow those look awesome!

 

[Breakage]

FH is gonna be the Smash Bros of racing games.

 

[sublimit]

Lol at the thread's title

 

[Tarkus98]

Awesome. Now grab some Crash karts!

 

[LucidFeuer]

Forza is one of the rare Xbox/Microsoft franchise I find appealing.
Too bad I don't care about Xbox and will never touch that Microsoft Store cancer.

You broke the exclamation point key OP?

I didn’t even want cars in my FF!

FFXV is like some washed-up has-been who keeps pining for cameos in a weak attempt to stay relevant. Just die, will you.

Second best selling FF behind 7, so it's pretty relevant.

True. Unfortunately it simply wasn’t good. I bet the next one won’t sell like XV (although will still do well I’m sure, as it seems gaming has become a horde of senseless zombies with poor taste).

noice *sip*

I think people were just over-eager to forget FFXIII and were hopeful XV would be more than it ended up being. (At least, that's my excuse. Lol) It had been a long time since we last had a good FF game...

 

[Danjin44]

I rather see SE work with MS to bring games like DQXI and upcoming Left Alive to their console.

Yeah, I bought it too, so I’m one of those people who supported it (although I didn’t even get halfway into it - I hated it). I will definitely be more vigilant when the next one releases. DQ and the smaller RPGs from Squenix will probably be all I buy in the future unless they get back to something good with FF.

For me, and for many other people in the world,
Final Fantasy XV is a good game.
GOTY 2016

And an excellent Final Fantasy.
(my favorite, at the levels of FF VI and FF IX)

Different strokes and all that. For me, it was mindless and sucked. Such a departure from FF of the past. Some think it is the next step, but I absolutely hate it.

I don’t disagree that many liked it - I just think a lot of core FF fans don’t like the direction it’s headed. That said, FF has been very hit or miss recently, so...

Sure, I'm certain Square will allow those games to have paint jobs on the sides of more FFXV cars.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Ok I guess, kind of an odd, and late, cross promotion

I am a longtime fan of the Final Fantasy saga.
And I played them all.

And I love Final Fantasy XV, also for the many references to the most classic chapters.
Which make it, together with the splendid OST, a masterpiece for me.

And since the saga is born, and exists, just to be always different to each chapter, I am very happy with the road taken by the saga.

And I hope, always and in any case, that the saga always has a rich and very rosy future.

 

[Cert.in.Death]

FFS Square-Enix. You are simply the worst.

 

[Codes 208]

This isn’t news I was expecting today. Kind of an interesting partnership though

 

[Caayn]

They had previously released one Regalia model for FH3.

Square this gen has worked with Xbox more so than I can remember. With a couple of marketing deals done already. I wonder how much it has helped with sales of their games on the Xbox platform.

 

[Danjin44]

Then I don’t understand why SE is not bringing games like DQXI to Xbox even tho it’s also on PS4, PC and it coming to Switch. Same with Left Alive which is also coming on PS4 and PC. Like to know the their reasoning behind this.

 

[Gavin Stevens]

Does it fly? No, seriously. Imagine how cool it would be to just press a button and transform.

Forza Horizon is a brilliant game and one of the best on Xbox, if not any platform. Its
Nice to see them get random support that’s just for chuckles like this and the halo warthog. But I would love some more classic cars... Ecto-1, perhaps?

Yeah that is curious why DQXI is not coming to Xbox when the older FF titles are coming.

 

[Pantz]

haha I had a feeling this might happen

would be nice if it came with a music track or two but i doubt it

 

[LMJ]

I mean it's not a huge deal, but still cool get MS, now get the Oscar Meyer Dog car, time to go cruising in 4k in the weiner mobile lol

P.S that is meant to be funny, but I'm also serious, make it happen MS!

We can only hope SE won’t make these atrocious mistakes again with FFXVI... FFXV could be a spin-off (well it was born like one) not related to the main serie.

Who I’m kidding... SE never learn.

Xbox still has a minimum print number? I know SE didn’t release some games on that platform due that minimum number in the past.

DQ didn’t sell that well in the west to reach good numbers too.

I like it globally. The main issue is that the second part of the game is really bad and this is what stay when you finish the game.
The first part of the world (the open world ) was really good.

I think it would have been better if the game was shorter instead of it being stretched like crazy. It really feels like they were slowly running out of budget toward the end.

 

[DiscoJer]

I hope they are reasonably balanced. Some of the Hot Wheels cares in FH4 are ridiculous.

 

[Pallas]

Those look pretty sharp.

I'd like a GT Horizon, tbh.
