Forza Horizon 3 is fastly approaching release now and Gamereactor recently got the chance to speak with the game's Creative Director Ralph Fulton about the DLC approach for the game following its launch.

"I think that Forza has a great tradition of supporting its games post launch," Fulton said, "[and] I think this game will be no different. I think we have already announced as part of the Ultimate Edition that there is a car pass, and therefore there is going to be monthly car DLC, that's kind of a given with Forza. There is also certainly a large segment of our fans who really value that way to increase the variety of cars within their game, so there will be that."

In regards to what is currently in the work, however, Fulton had less information to share. "We don't have anything to announce about expansions just yet, but I feel fairly secure in saying that there will be expansions, because I love that opportunity to give players more of what they love, but to change it up in some way that makes it different and fresh, and I think we did that really well in Horizon 2, Storm Island and Fast and Furious were both very different, but new ways to enjoy the game that people were still loving and playing, and I think we'll do something similar. "

Forzathon is also something Fulton wanted to highlight. "We do a lot of premium DLC, but we also do a lot of free stuff, like additional content updates, free content, which I think we don't often get the credit we deserve for. We are going to continue doing that, and Forzathon is one of the ways we are going to continue to bring not just new gameplay and fun, but actually new content, like the Warthog, like the Silvia S14, to our players because they are crying out for those things, and we want to keep giving them, keep thanking them I guess, for being in the franchise."

Forza Horizon 3 is out on September 27 for PC and Xbox One but fans who are eager to know more can check out our Hands-On experience.
