    Beautiful graphics and great gameplay, it was the best racing game released in recent times, simply amazing, the riding is fantastic and very fluid, the cars are beautiful and very fast, many beautiful scenery and beautiful music.

    I'm not going to lie, this is a very big disappointment for me. The expansion is expensive and the amount of races is not satisfying (not mentioning around 8 whole new cars that has been added, heh). The new modes are simple sprints that go off or on the hill, nothing special about it (in comparison to the modes in The Crew that were different than normal races).

The expansion is expensive and the amount of races is not satisfying (not mentioning around 8 whole new cars that has been added, heh). The new modes are simple sprints that go off or on the hill, nothing special about it (in comparison to the modes in The Crew that were different than normal races).

    The new customization options are non-existent, the only one is to add winter tires and that's it.

    To progress forward in expansion, it forces you not only to win races, but complete some extra challenge as well. You will need also to complete some of side activities like bucket list challenges, jumps etc. which in normal Forza were completely optional and you weren't forced to do them if you didn't like them (which I actually didn't).

    While every Forza had problems with balancing the difficulties on different races, this is the worst case. In some races I can get 3 out of 3 possible to achieve stars playing on difficulties like "Expert", while on the others I'm struggling to achieve 3 stars playing on the lowest "New driver",

    Many races have barricades with hitboxes that are low detailed, meaning that I often ended up hitting or bouncing the wall that I didn't yet touched. It is really frustrating when you want for example to overtake someone while being really close to a wall.

    The game has still not working multiplayer in groups, meaning that if you want to play with your friend, it will disconnect one of you from the other about 2 races after you connected so you have to reconnect again. This problem exists from the release of the main game and they still haven't fixed that, but instead, they release expensive expansion which adds really little to the game.

    Don't bother buying it for it's full price. Actually, I am the owner of Ultimate Edition and bought expansion pass that guarantees access to 2 expansions for 25$ (which is 10$ cheaper from the original price of the expansion pass), so the Blizzard Mountain price for me was around 12,5$ (considering this expansion being half of what expansion pass provides) and I still think that it isn't worth it.

    Comparing this expansion to Storm Island, first expansion for Forza Horizon 2, which added completely new races(off-road and rally, because Blizzard Mountain added snow races, but those are still rallies). Many new vehicles and customization options for them. It wasn't as bugged as Blizzard Mountain as well. I consider Storm Island to be ten times better than Blizzard Mountain.

    While I consider Forza Horizon 3 to be the best racing game ever, Blizzard Mountain is definitely an example on how not to do an expansion if you want it to be good.    … Expand

    Another really good forza expansion, great graphics, lots of gameplay, its more of a massive expansion to the forza horizon game than a simple add on, if you have the main game, this expansion is really worth the price

    This expansion is no worth the $10 dollars that it costs. It's just a little village on a top of a snowing mountain. The DLC includes some cars, but the best cars are restricted for those who have the money to buy the tokens for FH3 micro transactions.

    Jogo espetacular.
    Excelente gameplay e física.
    Excelente sound design e gráficos.
    Forza Tech Enegine é absurda.

    Parabéns para Turn10 e Playground Games!

    Su ambientación en un monte nevado de Australia es increíble, derrapar sobre la nieve y hacer locuras mientras ves el paisaje es genial.

    The new area is small and features a modest array of challenges (50), but nevertheless I enjoyed Blizzard Mountain more than any other racing game in a long, long time. [02/2017, p.32]

    It’s pretty much a nailed on cert that any past, present or future Forza Horizon 3 player will want to take to Blizzard Mountain as a matter of priority. That’s because the sheer thrill of racing wheel-to-wheel with some of the world’s best drivers, in the dark, with a full-on blizzard hitting you in the face, is just too much to ever turn down.

    Blizzard Mountain brings a substantial amount of content to an already massive game.
