A Fast & Furious tie-in and standalone expansion to Forza Horizon 2 will arrive for Xbox consoles next month.

Titled Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious, the downloadable title does not require the base game to play.

“We’ve been talking with the folks at Turn 10 for a number of years and have always wanted to work together,” said Bill Kispert, EVP of digital licensing at Universal told the Associated Press.

“It was a matter of schedules, capacity and a film coming together at the right time. It finally has, and we’re excited to collaborate with Turn 10.”

The expansion is set before the movie, and takes place in France. The player will be tasked with sourcing vehicles for Tej Parker, played Chris “Ludacris” Bridges in the both the films and the standalone game.

Cars from the Fast & Furious movies such as the 1970 Dodge Charger R/T driven by Vin Diesel’s character are included, along with Furious 7 cars: the 1998 Toyota Supra, 1970 Plymouth Road Runner, 2012 Nissan GT-R, 1970 Plymouth Cuda, 2013 Jeep Wrangler, 2014 Maserati Ghibli S and 2015 Dodge Charger.

Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious will launch March 27 for Xbox One and Xbox 360 and will be free until April 10 to promote the April 3 release of Furious 7.

After that the expansion will run you $10.
