As part of Gamescom, Microsoft announced a new multiplayer mode for Forza Horizon 5 called Hide & Seek. This new mode is exactly what it sounds like, where the Hider has to get to a location within a set amount of time, while the Seekers try to stop them.
In Hide & Seek mode, each side has a pre-set list of stock vehicles to choose from. The mode also has its own specific progression track that players can work through to earn badges and achievements, among other unlocks.
The Hider can choose from the following vehicles:
The Seekers can choose from the following vehicles:
Matches take place in two phases, each with a four-minute duration. The Seekers have radar that points them to the general location of the Hider, and once they get close, they can use a “Ping” ability to show the specific location of the Hider on the map. The Hider, meanwhile, has an ability called Chase Breaker, which disables the Seekers’ radar and ping for 20 seconds and makes the Hider’s car invisible to Seekers.
Hide & Seek launches on September 10. When it goes live, players can visit a new location on the map to access it, or they can jump in through Forza Horizon 5’s Online page in the main menu. For more information, visit the Forza website.
