Barbie and Ken’s cars are now waiting at your Forza Horizon 5 garage
We’d previously covered reports from eagle-eyed fans who claimed Barbie’s cars would be making their way into Forza Horizon 5. His assessment was correct. Microsoft has just added both the Chevrolet Corvette that Barbie drives in the movie, as well as Ken’s GMC HUMMER EV Pickup to Forza Horizon 5’s drivable roster.
Microsoft has said that to get them both, all players have to do is check their Forza Horizon 5 message center. Everything for free, no paid DLC. Just get the cars and let’s go party.

Some could have jumped at the opportunity to complain that they wanted *insert name of edgy, bat-themed vehicle here* and not this. But the Chevrolet is no slouch.
And it looks pretty damn good in photo mode.

Anyone who’s not into giving Barbie’s preferred ride a chance can go with the much more aggressive HUMMER Pickup.
As the unexpectedly great box-office war of Barbie vs Oppenheimer draws ever nearer, Barbie reveals she has no trouble fighting on the most unexpected of fronts. Is this how Greta Gerwig’s live-action take on the popular doll will take down Christopher Nolan’s three-hour-long wartime drama? Will Fortnite soon host an event showing the horrendous effects of nuclear weapons as Nolan tries to win the gamer populace back? Only time will tell. Oppenheimer opens in theatres on July 20. Barbie catches up to him in her Chevy just one day later, on July 21.
As for the Forza Horizon 5 cars, you can download those right now.
