One of the very first choices that players have to make in Forza Horizon 5 is choosing between Horizon Apex, Horizon Wilds and Horizon Baja. All Forza Horizon fans are in a collective frenzy since the Forza Horizon 5 has gone live. Understandably so as Forza Horizon 5 is here to give a never-seen-before makeover to the world of car racing games. The game not only has the most exciting line-up of festivals, cars and stories spread across the fictional Mexican subcontinent but also has the most exciting adventures to offer.

 Which Horizon Adventure Chapter should you choose in Forza Horizon 5?

All players are required to start the game with the “Welcome To Mexico” opening sequence and the “On A Wing & A Prayer” chapter. Subsequently, you are supposed to acquire “Accolades” in order to unlock respective chapters- a feature strategically retained from the Lego Speed Champions expansion for Forza Horizon 4. Based on the number of accolades you earn, you will have an option to choose from the 3 most gripping adventures on the Forza Horizon 5 campaign: Horizon Apex, Horizon Wilds and Horizon Baja. Let’s dig deeper into what each adventure consists of.

Horizon Apex

Outpost Lineup:

  • Tulem Expedition – Complete the expedition at the historic Tulem site.
  • Lucha de Carreteras – Secure the blessing of ‘El Campeon.’

Horizon Wilds

Each adventure has a unique story while also being an opportunity for easy accolades, that’s not specific to just these 3. Players should try the Horizon Wilds Dirt racing chapter. What better experience than chasing a big cat in the muddiest jungles of Mexico in this phenomenal rally-style series? However, the Baja Adventure sure can give you a chance to be a stunt driver if that was ever a dream. As you achieve enough number of accolades, all the chapters will be eventually unlocked. So go for the story that you think is your true calling.
