XBOX GAME PASS
Announce program expansion will include "future unannounced games from Microsoft Studios including new iterations of our biggest Xbox One exclusive franchises such as Halo, Forza and Gears of War, on the same day they launch."

NEW LEAGUE SEASON
"The Series 1 reward is a special Valentine’s Day Driver Gear suit, which will be gifted to players who participate in at least one event. We’ve got a great Season Reward too – everyone who participates in the “New Year, New League”] ("A Lovely League") season will receive the 2016 Cadillac ATS-V Forza Edition."

#FORZATHON
"We’ve got a new #Forzathon event up in Forza Motorsport 7 as of today. Check out the Forza World Tour Part 2 event now. Complete all the steps in this series and you can take home the 1932 Ford De Luxe Five-Window Coupe!"

NEW COMMUNITY LIAISON MEMBER
"We’re welcoming a new member to the Community Support team this week. Chris Day has been with Microsoft for a few years now but joined Turn 10 this week to help as a Community Liaison, working alongside Nitro Glitter and SOY to help solve problems for Forza players. Here’s more from Chris in his own words: Hi all! My name is Chris (GT: Zak TwoPunch)! I'm super excited to be here at Turn 10 and have the opportunity to work with such a passionate community. I've been working on various Microsoft products and teams over the 3 years that I've been here. Gaming has been an important part of my life since age 4, when my Mom bought me a SNES and Donkey Kong Country. These days I'm primarily a PC gamer, though I do dabble with all the other systems. I am also attending Full Sail University online, pursuing a degree in Game Design. When not working, gaming, or doing schoolwork, I love to spend time with my adorable Havamalt puppy that I would love to share pictures of to anyone willing to look."

#FORZAFRIDAY LIVESTREAM
"We’ll be showing off the new #Forzathon event in Forza Motorsport 7 and racing with you in multiplayer in today’s episode of #ForzaFriday. The show begins at 3 p.m. on both Mixer and Twitch. See you then!"

Forza Week in Review 2-2-18
www.forzamotorsport.net/news/wir_2_2_18


FORD RAPTOR XBOX ONE X EDITION - thread
"Delivered as a free gift to all players earlier in the week (check your Forza 7 Message Center under the “Gifts” tab if you haven’t yet downloaded yours), the Raptor is ready for action. If you’re looking for a place to check out what the Raptor can do, head to the “Featured Events” channel in Rivals and look for the “Delivering the Sting” event, featuring the Raptor on Dubai Mountain reverse circuit."

FEBRUARY UPDATE COMING SOON - thread
"As we mentioned in our Ford Raptor Xbox One X Edition announce, our February content update will be released on Monday, February 19, and will feature the latest car pack for Forza 7, as well as the latest game updates. Look for more details in the near future."

NEW FORZA 7 EVENTS - thread
"This week we introduced a number of new Rivals and Hopper events to the game."
"After a week of fun in Classic Street Muscle and Prototype Group Racing, our “A Lovely League” Season now enters into Series 2, which kicks off tomorrow. Players who participate in Series 2 will win the Carnival Driver Gear suit. And don’t forget the Season-ending reward, the 2016 Cadillac ATS-V Forza Edition."

SPECIALTY DEALER - thread
"We’ll be running another Specialty Dealer poll this coming Monday – and, this time, the top two cars in votes will be added in."

#FORZATHON UPDATE - thread
"Last week we added three new #Forzathon events to Forza Motorsport 7. Since the launch of these events we have been investigating an issue where some players were not able to see the full list of new #Forzathon events. We have since identified the root cause of this issue and will be issuing a fix in our February update. After this issue is corrected, we’ll be extending current and adding new #Forzathon events to the game. Until that time, we will be leaving the current #Forzathon events in place. We apologize to those players who are currently unable to see the full list of events. Look for more information on our #Forzathon plans in Forza Motorsport 7 in the near future."
