Get Your Forza Horizon 3 Hog Tickets Today

If you have no idea what that headline is about, you didn’t remember the Warthog vehicle from Halo is coming to Forza Horizon 3. The armored Jeep — commonly known as the Warthog, but also also known as the best way to get around in Halo games — will be usable in the next Forza game. You might notice this Warthog has been nerfed — it doesn’t have any big guns or cannons in the back. It does have the best suspension of any car in the game, though.

Now for the catch….you can’t actually get the Warthog by playing through the game, nor paying for it as DLC (though we expect that to happen eventually). Only those who own Halo 5: Guardians or Halo: The Master Chief Collection will be able to obtain it, and if you’re one of those people, Microsoft just sent you a download code to get your own Warthog in Forza Horizon 3. For those who don’t meet those requirements, the Warthog will also be winnable in a special Forzathon event taking place in October.

If you think you’ve been able to drive the Warthog in Forza before, you’re wrong. The Warthog has been playable in a recent car-based game, but that game was Rocket League. The car was technically unlockable in Forza Motorsport 4, but you couldn’t drive with it!

Want to see the Hog go? Here, once again, is a video….

Go check your mailboxes for a surprise, then hold tight for Forza Horizon 3, on XBox One and PC September 27.
