Playground Games has today released the new Series 7 update for Forza Horizon 5 across all Xbox platforms and PC. This patch is one of the more extensive ones that FH5 has received in quite some time, and as such, there's a lot of new features that have been brought into the popular racing game. 

Of the new things that have been included in this Forza Horizon 5 update, Playground has now decked out the game with new Cinco de Mayo decore. Additionally, a new Festival Playlist has been added and 200 new Horizon Tour events have also been brought to the game. 

Per usual, the other big feature of this FH5 patch is that it fixes a number of lingering bugs and other problems in the game. So if you're someone that has still been running into random problems while playing, there's a chance that this patch could now solve your own issues.
