Title Screen
Forza Horizon (Debug Post Release 10-10-2013)
Build date October 10, 2013
Dump status Released
Dumped by Heavy Smoker
Released by Chr0m3 x MoDz, Heavy Smoker
File dump date November 20, 2025
File release date December 4, 2025
Origin Xbox 360 XDK HDD
Game Forza Horizon
System Xbox 360
Download Forza Horizon (Debug Post Release 10-10-2013) (info)
Error: The download file provided does not exist, please upload it or fix the file name if it's incorrect.

This build was recovered from the same XDK HDD that contained the May 2014 prototype of Forza Horizon 2. The build had been fully deleted and had to be reconstructed from multiple clusters. It is a post-release profiling build (nearly a year after the initial release of Forza Horizon) and was likely used as a performance / visual reference by Sumo Digital during the development of Forza Horizon 2 on Xbox 360.

Some files were missing or could not be fully recovered; in those cases, the files included here are from either the retail build or the May 2014 prototype. As far as I can tell, the rest of the build is intact and runs perfectly.

Forza Horizon 2 prototype: SpeechFacade_Forza2.xex SpeechFacade_Forza2_PRF.xex XMediaFacade_Forza2.xex XMediaFacade_Forza2_PRF.xex

Forza Horizon retail: UI.zip zipmanifest.xml UICarTargetCameraPresets.xml
