Forza Horizon 5 gifts players two cars from the upcoming BARBIE movie in new crossover
From Press Release:
Together with Warner Bros. Pictures and Mattel, Xbox is inviting gamers on a fun, fashionable, and inspirational ride this summer to celebrate the much-anticipated release of the new movie “BARBIE,” premiering in theaters on July 21. Fans can follow in Barbie’s high-heeled footsteps with exclusive Forza Horizon 5 in-game content, an inspiring video about careers in gaming with a Barbie touch, the first ever Xbox Barbie dolls, and our most stylish custom Xbox hardware yet.
The film sees Barbie hit the road in a classic 1956 Chevrolet Corvette EV Corvette — painted her signature pink hue, of course — while Ken cruises alongside in a 2022 GMC HUMMER EV Pickup. Now, Forza Horizon 5 players can join them in virtual versions of both iconic “BARBIE” cars. Starting today, everyone who plays Forza Horizon 5 will be gifted these themed cars — just download them from the in-game Message Center and they will appear in your garage, ready for racing.
Additionally, fans can bring Barbie’s fashion-forward genius to their gaming setups with interchangeable Xbox Wireless Controller faceplates designed after Barbie and Ken’s distinct on-screen outfits. Or, go for a complete remodel — in one of our most playful custom console designs in recent years, we’re giving away an Xbox Series S that has been built into the glamorous Barbie Dream House. Fans have a chance to win these starting on July 10 on @Xbox and Microsoft Rewards.
