When Microsoft revealed that the upcoming Forza Horizon 3 would feature more than 350, you knew it was going to have to dig pretty deep.

Turn 10 has announced the last batch of cars coming to Forza Horizon 3, and it includes the 1972 Reliant Supervan III, as well as the 1946 Ford Super Deluxe Station Wagon.

Forza Horizon is the more arcade-like offshoot of the series. It features large open worlds with activities outside of just racing. In the lead-up to Horizon 3’s release later this year, Turn 10 has been revealing a bunch of cars that will be coming to the game.

The most unique car headlining the list is the 1972 Reliant Supervan III. It’s a three-wheeled British car made to circumvent England’s car tax. Since it technically qualifies as a motorcycle, it’s much cheaper to own. It’s also not very fast. Under the hood is an engine that only produces 29 horsepower.

“We are delighted that the vehicle is included” said Elvis Payne of the Reliant Motor Club. “Whilst Reliants are often seen as a joke to many, they still have a strong following, and the inclusion of the Supervan shows just how much these vehicles continue to excite.”

The Reliant Robin was made famous by British motoring show Top Gear. In it, former host Jeremy Clarkson had to trek across town with one goal — to not die. Because of the Reliant’s three-wheel design, it’s possible for the car to flip over. It was a funny, albeit somewhat staged segment that really put this oddball car on the world stage.

Also coming to Horizon 3 is an American icon — the 1946 Ford Super Deluxe Station Wagon. Commonly referred to as a “woodie,” it is known for its various wood trims and is often shown carrying surfboards.

Because Horizon 3 will take place in Australia, it only makes sense that some off-roaders be included as well. The 2015 Alumni Class 10 Race Car will also be making it to the game.

All Baobab Tree locations in Tales of Kenzera
Zau fights a dragon in Tales of Kenzera: Zau.

While it wasn't marketed as being a particularly punishing game, Tales of Kenzera: Zau is by no means easy. You will have plenty of environmental challenges that can instantly sap your life, and the enemies you face -- especially the bosses -- are no slouches. When you first begin, it will only take a couple of bad hits to send Zau to the land of the dead himself. Alongside the Trinkets you can unlock through hidden challenges around the map, there are also Baobab Trees where Zau can stop to reflect on his journey thus far, have a short dialogue with Kalunga, and get a small addition to his health bar. Like everything in the game, these trees aren't prohibitively hidden, but you could easily pass one by and have no idea where it was when trying to backtrack. These are all the Baobab Tree locations so you can max out your health bar.
All Baobab Tree locations
There are six Baobab Trees to find in Tales of Kenzera: Zau and each adds a small segment of health to your total. When you collect them all, you will roughly double your HP bar. Here are each of their locations in the rough order you should naturally find them in. Most can be picked up on your first time through that area.
Ikakaramba

This one is very hard to miss as it is directly on your critical path. If you do, you can fast travel to the nearby campfire to grab it.

All Fallout games, ranked
The courier in his nuclear gear and holding his gun in Fallout: New Vegas key art.

Who would've thought the post-apocalypse could be such a fun time? The Fallout franchise has taken the idea of a Mad Max-like future and not only made it into a wildly popular game franchise but also a hit TV series. The core franchise has been around since the late '90s, and yet we've had only a handful of mainline entries in the series since it was revived by Bethesda with Fallout 3. With Starfield in the rearview mirror and the next Elder Scrolls title currently being the dev team's focus, it could be close to another decade before we can set foot in the wasteland ourselves once again. What better time, then, to look back at the franchise and rank all the games from best to worst?
