Forza Motorsport Update 12 Adds Spectate Mode, Challenge Hub and More

Turn 10 Studios has released Forza Motorsport update 12 adding Spectate Mode, Challenge Hub and more. Spectate Mode allows players to race from start to finish and save a replay afterwards. The Challenge Hub gives players flexibility in earning reward cars. You can either follow the Featured Tour in Career mode, as before, or participate in races within Featured Multiplayer.

Update 12 also introduces improvements to the Forza Race Regulations (FRR) AI Penalty System, along with customizable weather settings for Free Play and Private Multiplayer modes. As announced last month, the new update also marks a new collaboration with the iconic Jordan brand in both Forza Motorsport and Forza Horizon 5. Race the custom 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Jordan Luka 3 Motorsport Edition in the Jordan Luka 3 Motorsport Series, and complete all five events to earn the Jordan Luka 3 Racing Suit. Forza Horizon 5 users can grab it from the Message Center.
