The Forza Horizon 5 Frosty Friends is the latest collectible challenge making its way into this expansive driving experience. Forza Horizon 5 is the latest live service title jumping into its festive season, with plenty of challenges to work through and Christmassy content to unlock.

However, with the enormous size of Mexico, you may be wondering where exactly these Frosty Friends can be found. Let's jump into the requirements, location, and reward of the Forza Horizon 5 Frosty Friends challenge.

While you might think picking out the Forza Horizon 5 Frosty Friends might be far easier in this game's far more tropical setting, the map's enormity and varied terrain begs to differ. Luckily, if you head to the position shown in the map above, which is the peak of the volcano in La Gran Caldera, this is where you will find the snowmen. Three can be found around the main lake, and the other two can be found in the small gathering of buildings next to the smaller pond. 

The only issue with this challenge is that just five snowmen spawn into each session. Since we need 15, and the challenge and season ends on Thursday, December 23, we need another solution. One way, albeit a far slower method is to back out the game and relaunch it into a new session.

The snowmen will respawn in this case. However, a far easier way is for you to drop into Horizon Solo, which you can do by going to the Online tab in the pause menu and selecting Horizon Solo. Once in this mode, you will be able to use the rewind feature. Smash in the snowman rewind and smash again. Each will count towards your total needed and earn you the Snowman Outfit. 

That is how you complete the Forza Horizon 5 Frosty Friends challenge. Looking for some extra cash in Forza? Check out our guide on the Forza Horizon 5 Goliath glitch, for unlimited money and XP.

The Forza Horizon 5 Frosty Friends challenge comes as part of the ongoing Autumn season of content. It asks that in typical Forza fashion, you smash 15 snowmen which can be found around the map. You will have to carry this challenge out in the 1997 Mazda RX-7 to be sure that each snowman counts towards the 15 needed. This challenge will get you properly in the Christmas spirit, as you will be rewarded with a Snowman Outfit for your troubles. Nothing says Christmas like a snowman driving a Bugatti at 200 miles per hour.
