The specific ‘Smash 5 traffic cones’ challenge from Series 3 is no longer in the game and hasn’t yet returned.
Forza Horizon 5 loves to get players hunting specific objects scattered around Mexico for its seasonal challenges. In Series 3, players were tasked with finding and smashing five traffic cones as one of the Summer season challenges, and while cones sound like an easy thing to locate in a racing game, it’s not so straightforward.
There are hundreds of miles of roads winding their way around the map, which means tracking some down could take up a fair amount of your time. There’s no guarantee either that when you do find some, there will be five or more for you to smash. Fear not though, as we found a great traffic cone location in Forza Horizon 5 that would allow you to quickly tick this challenge off your list.
