From June 18th to June 25th, 2026, the Summer season brings a heavy dose of 80s nostalgia to the map. Whether you are playing on Xbox Series X|S or PC, here is everything you need to know to stack up those points and grab the exclusive reward cars.

⚡ Quick Facts

Weekly Challenge: Blast from the Past

To complete this challenge, you will need the 1982 Delorean DMC-12. If you don't have one, you can pick it up at the Autoshow for 72,000 credits or win one by completing the Street Runner championship.

  1. Own and drive: Simply get behind the wheel of your Delorean.
  2. Speed: Maintain 88 mph or more for ten seconds.
  3. Photo: Take a photo of the car. Pro tip: if you drift while doing this, you'll also complete the #TheJoyOfDrifting Photo Challenge.
  4. Race: Win any Road Race in the car to finish the final stage.

Recommended Tune: If you need to upgrade that underpowered stock engine, use share code 660019901.

Seasonal Championships and Events

Most events this week favor 80s-era machinery. If you are struggling with the tougher challenges, here are some recommended setups:

  • The Trial (Push it to the Limit): Use the 1988 Lancia Delta S2 (Share code: 682869281).
  • Street Racing (Spring into Action): Use the 1988 BMW M3 (Share code: 979844503).
  • Road Racing (What’s the Hatch?): Use the 1983 Golf GTi (Share code: 134610955).

Pro Tips for Quick Progression

If you are short on time, don't jump into the long championships immediately. Start with the Photo Challenge and the Treasure Hunt in the Nangan Region—these offer the highest point-to-time ratio. Once those are finished, clear the Hide & Seek – 5 vs 1 mode. Save The Trial for last, as it requires coordination with other players and can be the most time-consuming part of the playlist.

Remember, all of these events are accessible via Xbox Game Pass. Check back next week as we move into the Autumn season of the Horizon Decades series.
