Playground Games has announced a brand new game mode in Forza Horizon 5. Titled Hide and Seek, this mode will pit five “Seekers” against one “Hider”, who will do their utmost to escape the pursuit.
The trailer marked the beginning of Xbox’s Gamescom 2024 livestream. Coming September 10, Hide and Seek will be available as a free update for all. While the core gameplay will be based very much on the childhood activity we all participated in, there will be a few adapta🐎tions.
You’ll have to make strategic calls in Forza Horizon 5’s Hide and Seek mode
In Hide and Seek, you can’t just outrun your Seekers if you become a Hider. A special meter will be available at the bottom of your screen, and as the gauge fills up, you can camouflage yourself. As a result, you can even hide in the open and make a fool out of those pursuing you.
But beware: drive too close, and the hiders can ping your location. This will help them track you down before approaching the Endzone. From what I understood, the Endzone will be visible as a bright-orange location, but it will take time to activate. While hiding might be the right choice in certain situations, be ready to run when req🔯uired.
Forza Horizon 5, released in 2021, continues to get more content in fe🅰stivals and seasons. I am more than intrigued to try out Hide and Seek when it goes live on September 10, 2024. The mode will also have its own reward track, which will include XP from the games you play. Playing continuously will also help you to unlock a play streak and get bonus XP as well.
