Forza Motorsport 5′s Next Update Reduces Car Prices, Adds Drag Racing and Tag Modes

Turn 10 learns from its mistakes, makes Forza 5 much better.

Did Forza Motorsport 5's credit grind get to you? It did for a lot of players, and now developer Turn 10 is taking action.

In an upcoming update, Forza Motorsport 5's car pricing will be re-evaluated. Cars across the spectrum will have their prices reduced noticeably, sometimes as much as 45%. In addition, the credit rewards from each race and series have been increased by over 100%. Turn 10 says you will now be able to earn exotics even faster than in Forza Motorsport 4.
The update doesn't stop there. Two new game modes will be added: Drag Racing and Tag. While Drag Racing will be able to house 16-players for quarter mile straight-line races, Tag will have three options as described on IGN:

Keep the It: One player begins the match as “It.” The goal is for the “It” player to keep “It” status for as long as possible. “It” status transfers each time someone makes contact with the “It” player. Once the match timer has completed, the player with the most “It” time wins.

Tag Virus – One player begins the match as “It.” Each time an “It” player makes contact with another car, the “It” status spreads like a virus. The last uninfected player standing wins the match.

Pass the It: Similar to “Keep the It”, one player begins a “Pass the It” match with “It” status. “It” status transfers each time someone makes contact with the “It.” At the end of the match, the player with the least amount of “It” time wins.

The update will be made available sometime this month, and Turn 10 hopes to be able to push it out next week. If you own Forza 5, or are thinking about getting it, this update looks like a great reason to throw the game into your Xbox One.
