Forza Horizon 5 Crunchyroll Free Car Voucher: Facts
No, there is no official Crunchyroll free car voucher for Forza Horizon 5. The voucher that occasionally circulates online is a phishing scam or a misremembered promotion from a different game, and it has never been issued by Playground Games, Turn 10, or Crunchyroll. Below is the full background, how the scam works, and what legitimate free cars exist in Forza Horizon 5.
Where the Rumor Started
Crunchyroll and Forza Horizon 5 have never had a crossover promotion. The rumor likely began because Crunchyroll has partnered with other games (like Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail) for in-game rewards, and some players assumed a similar deal existed for Forza. Another source is fake “voucher generator� websites that promise free cars in exchange for personal information. These sites have been around since the Forza Horizon 4 era and are still active today, targeting players who search for free content.
How the Scam Works
The fake voucher sites typically ask you to:
- Enter your Xbox or Microsoft account email
- Complete a “human verification� survey (which earns the scammers ad revenue)
- Download a third-party app or browser extension
None of these steps ever deliver a voucher. Instead, you may end up with malware, adware, or your account credentials harvested for phishing. Microsoft’s official support pages warn against entering your password on any site other than login.live.com, and they never distribute game content through third-party voucher pages.
Legitimate Free Cars in Forza Horizon 5
Forza Horizon 5 does give away free cars, but only through official channels:
- Monthly Backstage Pass – Earned by completing the Festival Playlist, then redeemable for a selection of rare cars.
- Seasonal Playlist Rewards – New cars are added every week (Thursday at 14:30 UTC) and can be earned by completing challenges.
- Forza Monthly – A free car is given to all players each month, usually announced on the Forza social channels.
- Game Pass Perks – Occasionally, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members get a free car pack (e.g., the 2021 Ford Bronco or the 2020 Corvette Stingray) through the Perks section of the Xbox app.
None of these require a Crunchyroll account or voucher code.
How to Spot a Fake Voucher
If you see a “free car voucher� claim, check these red flags:
- Domain name – Official Forza news only appears on forzamotorsport.net or playground-games.com. Any other domain is not official.
- Urgency – Scams often say “limited time – claim now� to pressure you.
- Requests for password – Legitimate promotions never ask for your Microsoft password.
- Social media verification – Check the official Forza Twitter/X or Instagram; if it’s not there, it’s not real.
What to Do If You Entered Your Details
If you already entered your email or password on a fake voucher site, act quickly:
- Change your Microsoft account password immediately.
- Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your account.
- Check your account activity for any unauthorized sign-ins.
- Run a malware scan on your device if you downloaded any files.
Microsoft’s account security page (account.microsoft.com/security) lets you review recent activity and sign out of all devices.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a Crunchyroll car in Forza Horizon 5?
No. Crunchyroll has no partnership with Forza Horizon 5, and there is no Crunchyroll-branded car in the game. Any video claiming otherwise is fake.
Can I get a free car without paying?
Yes, every week you can earn free cars through the Festival Playlist. You just need to complete a few races and challenges. The game also gives a free car monthly to all players.
What is the Backstage Pass?
The Backstage Pass is a reward you earn by completing 100% of the Festival Playlist (or 50% in some seasons). You can redeem it for one of several rare cars that are not otherwise available in the Autoshow.
Are voucher codes ever real for Forza Horizon 5?
Rarely, but they come from official sources like Xbox Game Pass Perks or promotional events run by Microsoft. They are never distributed through random websites or social media comments.
Why do I keep seeing “Crunchyroll voucher� videos on YouTube?
Those videos are clickbait. They use misleading titles and thumbnails to get views, but the actual content usually says “this is fake� or tries to get you to visit a scam site. Report them if you see them.
