Backstage Shop Update
26 March
We are pleased to announce that every previous Festival Playlist-exclusive car and every car participating in any Backstage Vote will now become available for purchase at the Horizon Backstage Shop! This brings the total amount of cars purchasable at the shop to 136. Make sure you keep tallying up those Backstage Passes to grow your collection with cars you might have missed or that didn’t make the cut during the Backstage Vote!
With every car possible added to the Backstage Shop, that means there won’t be another round of Backstage Voting. We love seeing players participate in the voting process each week. Thank you for making every matchup a thrill to watch!
