In fairness, any advert that feature’s Adriano Celetano’s 1973 hit tune ‘Prisencolinensinainciusol’ is sure to be special…

Forza Horizon 2 hits Xbox consoles on September 30 – only one more week! – and to get us ready for the latest instalment, the lads at Microsoft have released this cracking 2-minute live action trailer.

The advert brings the open-world driving of Forza to life by breaking some of our all-time favourite cars free from their Scalextric-style constraints on the track.

It also features the hilarious tune ‘Prisencolinensinainciusol’ from Italian singer and comedian Adriano Celetano, which was written to mimic what English sounds like to non-English speakers. So don’t worry if you can’t make out any of the lyrics – you’re not supposed to.

Keep your eyes out over the next week as the ad has been cut to 30-seconds for TV slots. As we said above, Forza Horizon 2 hits Xbox on September 30.

Here’s the original video for ‘Prisencolinensinainciusol,’ for those that might be curious.
