Forza Horizon 2 is the sequel to Forza Horizon , an open-world racing game. Transitioning to the next generation of Xbox, the two versions of the game largely share the same cars, assets, world and features, but were handled by different developers. Rather than upgrading or downgrading a version for the other platform, they each take a distinct direction based on the same concept and content.

The player participates in the Horizon Racing festival with light story elements. The environment is based on southern France and northern Italy, combined with off-road racing and small villages. By participating in events and championships cash is earned and the character levels up, gaining access to new cars and events. Exploring is encouraged to locate hidden cars, and experience and travel banners can be found. Different racers you encounter can be challenged freely and various actions are rewarded with experience or skill points for precision and dangerous actions.

Cars can be customized through different parts, but also aesthetically through body kits, spoilers and a full livery editor. These customized car designs can be shared. The difficulty can be tweaked through general AI difficulty and assists such as traction control or the ideal racing line. Online racing includes road trip, free roam and private matches with various settings. Unique to multiplayer are game modes such as infected and king.

Graphically each version uses a different engine. The Xbox 360 version is based on Forza Horizon , while for the Xbox One Forza Motorsport 5 was used as a starting point. Differences are notable in draw distance, density of foliage, shadows, rendering and lighting. The Xbox One version has more varied weather conditions with atmospheric effects.

The location of events, circuits and side quests are unique to each version. Even though sharing the same game world, there are differences in presentation as well. For instance, cars are chosen differently on Xbox One. Entirely unique to the Xbox One version are Drivatars.
