Forza Horizon 3 Introducing Weekly Challenges
Forza Horizon 3 will introduce Forzathon, a new weekly competitions feature that will begin in October.
Speaking to IGN at Gamescom today, Playground Games creative director Ralph Fulton explained that the game will include a calendar of challenges at least a month in advance. Currently, rewards include a comedy horn pack and a Nissan Silvia S14 unlock.
Most intriguingly, from October 28-30, Fulton says players will be able to unlock a "literally incredible vehicle" that's not previously been driveable in the Forza series.
Forzathon competitions can be single-day or multi-day, and many of the rewards offered will be available only through completion of the challenge (although Fulton was keen to stress that popular rewards would be re-used in multiple events).

Oxenfree Dev Debuts New Mr. Robot Mobile Game
A new Mr. Robot mobile game, developed by Oxenfree’s Night School Studio and published by Telltale Games, is now available for iOS and Android devices.
Mr. Robot: 1.51exfiltrati0n (as written in the titling style of the show's episodes) is set in the world of the USA Network series, specifically ahead of a major turning point in the first season. The game is initially presented as the player picking up a phone that actually belongs to the hacker group at the heart of the show, fsociety.
1.51exfiltrati0n then takes players into the E Corp Messaging App, a chat client throughout which players will communicate with a cast of characters, including some familiar ones from the show, via texting in order to recover data that fsociety needs to hack Evil Corp.
Ubisoft Reveals New Multiplayer Mode for Watch Dogs 2
Ubisoft has revealed a new mode, Bounty Hunter, for upcoming Watch Dogs 2.
This new "online component" links into Watch Dogs' "police heat" system. If your activities have brought a little too much attention onto yourself, you may trigger a Bounty Hunter PvP event that pits you against a rival team of up to three other players.
Alternatively, you can trigger a bounty yourself by using the Contacts app in Marcus' phone.
Ubisoft has also confirmed the return of Watch Dogs' Hacking Invasion - a mode in which you must stealthily acquire data from a target without detection - and detailed Online Co-op, a two-player exploration mode that enables you to team up for cooperative missions and check out the San Francisco Bay Area together.
Ubisoft Announces The Crew: Calling All Units Expansion
Ubisoft has announced the next expansion coming to The Crew, Calling All Units.
This is the second expansion for the driving MMO title and will be available from November 29 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.
Calling All Units is centred around the idea of Cops versus Robbers. The expansion introduces “brand-new police versus racer gameplay” and features a 12-mission story that lets players build up their own “cop style and tactics.”
As well as a level cap increase to 60, the expansion offers up new vehicles and parts – from indestructible cop SUVs to “exotic” supercars and motorbikes. Playing as cop means chasing down racers and performing arrests, while ripping up the tarmac as a street racer sees players transporting cargo for high rewards. Cop chases can be triggered at anytime, anywhere thanks to the game’s MMO environment.
