One of the mightiest modern muscle cars shows up to blast the Street Racing scene as a reward car for Midnight Muscle. Taking the best from the Demon, the Hellcat, and the Redeye, say hello to the 2022 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock.

The 6.2-liter Hemi V8 engine (same engine you can find in the Redeye) looks better than ever fitted inside a widebody kit. Some computer tuning and the already amazing engine now produces 807 horsepower.

Dodge made sure the Super Stock could master more than one type of racing fitting it with an adaptive shock system that helps the car perform like a grand tourer on the track, and to obliterate competition on drag races.

Show how well this car performs underneath the neon lit Horizon Festival!

A muscle car built for endurance racing; the 1995 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra R is a road legal racing monster purchasable only by licensed racers.

This new model of the SVT Cobra was fitted with an even larger engine than its predecessor. The Cobra R came with a 5.8-liter V8 engine that produces 300 horsepower, making it the most powerful pony available at the time.

Only 250 units of the SVT Cobra R were built, and you could only buy them if you had intentions of running them on the track for endurance events. Making sure every copy of this car has one clear target: secure a win for the American car maker.

What’s cooler than a snake badge? Try a snake wrapped around a blood-red R.

Extreme is not enough to describe this car. Fitted with six wheels, three axels, matte finishes, and red details on the exterior, the Slayer is as metal as cars can get.

The goal when building this monstrous machine was to take it as close as possible to 1000 horsepower while still using regular fuel. The DeBerti team managed to reach 900 bhp thanks to the 2020 GM LSX-B15 V8 engine provided by Chevrolet Performance.

2024年是极限竞速系列极为忙碌的一年，开发者团队Playground Games和Turn 10 Studios一直致力于持续为《极限竞速》与《极限竞速：地平线5》发布定期的功能及内容更新。



鉴于众多更新需要跟进，今年我们推出了Forza简讯[forza.net]，这是一项定期通知服务，会将最新消息发送至您的电子邮箱。无论您热衷于探索越野风景、在赛道疾驰过弯，还是两者兼顾，Forza简讯[forza.net]都有您感兴趣的内容。（悄悄告诉您……留意一下，您可能会在未来的时事通讯中发现一些游戏内的好东西……）



由JDMADIAZ设计的涂装






汽车与社区的精彩结合，离不开游戏开发者与玩家的共同努力。《极限竞速》团队一直深受数百万玩家富有创意与巧思的创作启发。我们在文中分享了部分例子，而论坛上完整的“2024年最佳”系列，能让您尽情浏览我们钟爱的照片与涂装设计。您或许能为爱车找到全新标志性外观，亦或从中获得灵感，开启创作并分享您在游戏中的艺术才华之旅！

《极限竞速：地平线5》的玩家们，现在仍有时间为今年金坦克奖中您喜爱的EventLab创作投票！[forums.forza.net]随着更多玩家尝试构建蓝图与放置道具，这些奇妙且精心打造的比赛、障碍赛道、谜题、冒险及赛道的质量持续提升。



2024年也是创意UGC合作之年。涂装艺术家PTG Fluex与EventLab专家JohCee携手推出“迷你赛车手”项目，包含四个独特的EventLab创作，旨在唤起人们在怀旧奇幻环境中驾驶复古玩具车比赛的魅力，其涂装灵感源自经典玩具车。



合作不仅局限于个体玩家联手，比如粉丝团体“极限竞速街头战争”与“极限竞速创作者公会”合作打造的竞赛赛道，不仅凸显了EventLab建造者的技术能力，还以刺激陌生的地形挑战了街头战争锦标赛的车手。



可以说，2024年《极限竞速》最大的社区活动当属由TORA（在线赛车协会）主办的9小时基拉米世界杯，吸引了超100支队伍、350多名车手参赛。没错，他们真的整整比赛了9个小时！恭喜ESV Motorsports！

2024年是《极限竞速》稳步发展的一年。历经12次内容更新，游戏扩充了车辆与赛道阵容，引入多个新功能并提升了游戏体验，其中许多灵感源自社区在建议中心的投票。[aka.ms]



过去一年中，部分值得关注的赛道亮点包括纽伯格林北环、赛百灵国际赛道、亚特兰大路赛道、日落半岛赛道（上次亮相于《极限竞速4》）[forza.net]，以及近期的巴瑟斯特全景山赛道（V8超级跑车锦标赛举办地）。



众多新车辆与回归车辆加入游戏，如2024年下一代纳斯卡、2024年福特野马RTR、2019年吉内塔G40 Junior、2018年阿斯顿·马丁#97 AMR Vantage GTE、2018年萨林S302黑标、1988年雪佛兰#77贝雷塔Trans Am等等。



游戏整体稳定性与性能得以改进，新增漂移、耐力和多级别等游戏模式，以及一系列新功能，如车辆接近雷达、旁观、私人多人练习与排位赛、高级车辆虚化等等。通过挑战中心，玩家可通过生涯模式或特色多人游戏获取奖励车辆，[forza.net]并且我们持续更新游戏的其他方面，包括视觉保真度、音频质量、车手虚拟形象AI、比赛规则以及车手和安全评级。

在迈向《极限竞速》未来的征程中，今年我们推出了一些新的社区举措，确保前进方向正确。我们的团队在给社区的信件中分享了进度更新，[forza.net]并且开启了新的“车库访谈”Discord问答系列，让开发者深入探讨玩家最关心的游戏领域。[forza.net]



我们还开放了《极限竞速》内部人员计划，您可注册参与未来《极限竞速》更新在PC或主机上的试玩测试，并在反馈调查和独家论坛中分享对游戏内容的看法。[forza.net]



2024年我们庆祝了众多合作伙伴关系，[forza.net]包括美孚1号（带来新对手赛挑战与枫叶谷赛道更名）[forza.net]，以及罗技、迈凯伦和纳斯卡。一个亮点无疑是与乔丹和职业篮球运动员卢卡·东契奇的运动鞋合作。这包括一个带有标志性乔丹品牌的箱根赛道版本，所有玩家都收到了一辆定制的1969年雪佛兰科迈罗乔丹卢卡3赛车运动版。玩家可用此车参加乔丹卢卡3赛车运动系列赛，解锁特殊赛车服，并且我们也让所有《极限竞速：地平线5》玩家能够获得这辆车。[forza.net]



由Kerles拍摄






从未想过能在《极限竞速：地平线5》的节日道路上驾驶1969年雪佛兰科迈罗乔丹卢卡3赛车运动版这样的车，但2024年《极限竞速：地平线5》惊喜不断，希望您在墨西哥冒险时尽情享受这些内容。



我们以社区选择[forza.net]开启这一年，这是一次部分由社区成员参与的内容更新。玩家有机会投票选择希望回归游戏的车辆、功能和装饰品。投票统计后，结果是一个充满雨林机场霓虹灯、16个回归特技、车展新增10辆奖励车辆以及充满欧洲异国风情车辆的节日播放列表的系列。



这并非社区唯一一次共同参与更新。早在3月，地平线竞赛赛季上线[forza.net]。此次更新为玩家设定了共同目标：完成街道和越野赛车赛事，为社区解锁两辆车！这个系列中，一个新的移动前哨站也来到了地平线节。竞赛前哨站展示了街道和越野挑战的进度，而其最精彩之处在于每周变换位置，促使玩家探索地图寻找。



竞赛赛季结束两个月后，复古浪潮席卷地平线节，带来了地平线复古波[forza.net]。此次更新的新开始屏幕在游戏启动时便能看到（很多人将其设为最爱）。复古波不仅关乎外观，还涉及声音。《极限竞速：地平线5》迎来新的合成波电台：地平线复古音浪。由伊莎贝尔·莫斯主持，有21首新歌，包括一首对主播友好的米奇·穆德的《魔法满屋混音版》。



今年，在隐藏地平线[aka.ms]更新中，一个令人兴奋的新游戏模式“捉迷藏”与众多车辆及内容一同来到《极限竞速：地平线5》。这个新的5对1体验让两队玩家享受惊心动魄的追逐游戏。5名玩家作为寻找者，任务是找到隐藏者并保持靠近，以填满计量表。若计量表在时间用完或寻找者到达目的地前达到100%，他们获胜！反之，隐藏者要利用环境和NPC车辆掩护自己，躲避寻找者，直到终点区域向所有玩家揭示。终点区域揭示后，隐藏者的任务变为在寻找者填满计量表前到达该区域。后续游戏更新《回到90年代》[forza.net]，让玩家有机会解锁与捉迷藏相关的荣誉和成就。希望您依然享受隐藏与追逐的乐趣！



EventLab创作者在今年新增的道具中收获颇丰，这些道具涵盖咖啡杯、赛车装饰品、高速公路、海拔部件，当然还有在地平线赛道日[aka.ms]中出现的新光环道具。我们最大的道具包有71个部件，包含光环系列标志性建筑，如圣约人路障、联合国太空司令部路障、圣约人投放舱、能量护盾、圣约人箱子、联合国太空司令部鹈鹕号等等。这些部件大多直接来自光环工作室，从锻造模式直接进入了地平线节。光环原声音乐中的三首歌曲也被添加到《极限竞速：地平线5》电台。地平线XS现在播放《光环主题曲：冈尼尔混音版（史蒂夫·范伊演奏）》，永恒电台在其目录中添加了《04号设施》和《踪迹》。



《极限竞速：地平线5》推出了一系列精彩的车辆包，车辆种类繁多，包括电动汽车、超级明星赛车、流行文化偶像等等。我们社区最喜爱的之一是通用图标车辆包[forza.net]，其中有5辆来自电视节目和电影的车辆：3个版本带有电影灯光和声音的《回到未来》时光机、1982年环球影城的K.I.T.T.（配备超级追击车身套件），以及标志性的1992年环球影城吉普牧马人撒哈拉“侏罗纪公园”版。






您看到本文发布时，《极限竞速：地平线4》已不再于在线商店销售。不过，游戏仍可正常游玩，服务器也在运行，您仍可与其他玩家一同在开放世界中探索英国美景！请注意，如果您曾在Xbox Game Pass上游玩《极限竞速：地平线4》并购买过DLC内容，您可能有资格兑换游戏代币。详情请查看我们的博客文章。[forza.net]






从时间长河来看，2024年的流逝标志着自首款《极限竞速》游戏发布已过去19年。没错，2025年是极限竞速系列的20周年，我们正为整个《极限竞速》社区筹备有趣活动与惊喜。



感谢您今年与我们一同驰骋极限竞速。2025年我们赛道上见！
