EventLab
- Changed the sorting order for PG editors choice tab in EventLab
- Developer’s Notes: “Since the release of Forza Horizon 5, the PG Editors Choice tab has featured a rotating selection of community creations hand picked by the dev team. These were previously sorted from most to least plays, meaning any new events added appeared at the end of the list. This tab is now sorted by featured date, with newly highlighted events appearing first. With this change we will no longer be removing events from the tab, and instead continually adding new events including bringing back some previous favorites, creating a back catalog of the best from our amazing EventLab creator community.”
