Rolling out across all platforms on June 10 at 10 am PDT, Forza Motorsport Update 9 adds Porsche 963 2024 Combo to the game, and it is free to claim to all Forza Motorsport owners until June 19, before it becomes a purchasable item for $4.99. It’s worth noting that the car will not be a part of Car Pass in any of the game editions.
Update 9 also brings the Sebring International Raceway to the game in two Full Circle and Short Circle variants. Moreover, the Endurance Tour will take over the Featured Tour spot in Forza Motorsport running from June 13 until July 25. Each week, a new event will take place in Endurance Tour, and if you manage to complete all 4 events, 1988 Nissan R88C Le Mans.
In the meantime, Open Class Tour will also go live in the same time frame, with each week’s event focusing on a certain class of cars. Completing the Open Class Tour will get you a 1970 Chevron B16.
