Heres a thread to keep track of all the seasonal things that games are doing for the Christmas holiday 2016 to help everyone enjoy the season of giving and gaming. Everything from big Overwatch style events, to little easter eggs if you play the game on December 25th or whatever. Also any good wintry gamefeels.

So far I know of:

1. The Hitman Christmas Bonus Level, a contract on the Paris level done up beautifully in christmas decorations where you have to kill the bandits from Home Alone, you can unlock a santa suit for any level by completing challenges.
2. The Overwatch Christmas Update, map decorations, skins, other lootbox crap
3. Christmas Pikachu in pokemon go, a special pikachu with a santa hat.
4. GTA Online will have the snow in los santos for a few days around christmas.
5. Forza Horizon 3 first DLC, which features a snow covered mountain just came out.

This is what I initially thought of as well. It gives me the urge to replay it every year too

Forza Horizon 3, judging by the Furza Horizon 3 livery on it.

It's one of the first Xbox on Windows games they've released but it runs predictably like garbage, at least on my rig. Unfortunately.

Really? It runs pretty well on mine, whats your specs?

Id reccomend it to anyone who likes racing games and the snow expansion is really cool but youre looking at like 80-90 bucks to buy the game right now and drive in the snow so yeah look for a sale
