Microsoft hosted the Xbox 20th Anniversary Celebration on Monday, a commemoration of two decades of Xbox gaming memories and moments. Forza Horizon 5 from Playground Games and Xbox Game Studios officially released less than a week ago, but that isn't stopping the Forza teams from participating in the festivities with a player-facing reward of their own. Today, players that log into Forza Horizon 5, Horizon 4, or Motorsport 7 can obtain a free Gift Car with an exclusive Xbox 20th Anniversary Celebration livery.
The Gift Car is a 2014 Porsche 918 Spyder, an incredible car in its own right. However, this particular model is unique in that it features a livery you can't find anywhere else. The car is adorned with the names of Xbox's biggest titles of today, and it looks pretty amazing. It's not clear how long this Gift Car will be available, so be sure to log into your favorite Forza title today to add this car to your garage.
This is the latest Gift Car in the Forza Horizon 5 car list, after Playground Games celebrated Día de Muertos. While this alone probably won't convince you to play Forza Horizon 5, the epic open-world racing title has plenty of other things going for it.
