When Forza Horizon 5 releases on Xbox and PC platforms in just a few days, series veterans will know to expect a bevy of free in-game rewards from the always-generous series. Among them will be a new Dia de Muertos livery decorating one of the most beloved American-made cars in the world, the Corvette.

Xbox teamed up with actor Xolo Maridueña (Cobra Kai, Parenthood) to design the special livery that celebrates the holiday of Mexican origin which gives the living a period to reflect on their lost loved ones. In Forza Horizon 5, the holiday's traditionally vibrant colors and iconography can be seen from fender to bumper on the 2020 Chevy Corvette Stingray.

The car will be given to all Forza Horizon 5 players sometime after the game's global launch on November 9. For those still playing Forza Horizon 4 in the meantime, the car is already available as a free gift. In both cases, players need only to unlock the first Player House and check their in-game messages before the end of the calendar year to claim their gift.

The Dia de Muertos free car will feature symbols such as marigold flowers and hummingbirds.

Born in Los Angeles, Maridueña drew on his family's tradition and captured Dia de Muertos in the car's bright orange and yellow base colors, accented by cooler purples and magentas. Stretching across the side is a dark hummingbird, a symbol of the bittersweet day of remembrance, much like the marigold flowers that appear all over the sports car.

Forza Horizon 5 launches on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC on November 9. Players who pre-order the Premium Edition can start their engines earlier though, on November 5. It will also be available on November 9 for all Game Pass subscribers.

Looking for more free cars? Like we said, Playground Games is known to be generous, and the Xbox team has already revealed what players can expect as Forza Horizon 5 loyalty rewards. While you're at it, here's every car announced for Forza Horizon 5 so far. You can pre-load the game now ahead of when it unlocks very soon.
