Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon January 24-31: “Challenge of Our Rival”

|
, ,

As you probably know by now, #Forzathon has changed pretty dramatically in the latest iteration of the game. Check out our Forza Horizon 4  #Forzathon primer to make sense of the new #Forzathon format if you’re not already familiar with it.

At any rate, Autumn is back and here we are with a week that showcases the 1999 Mitsubishi – yes Mitsubishi! — Lancer Evolution VI GSR! The Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon January 17-24th event gives you a chance to earn an extra 100 (or 200 with the VIP house) #Forzathon Points in the Lancer Evo VI GSR! This Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon event started today at 7:30 a.m. PT and closes at 7:30 a.m. PT on January 31st. In addition to the four new #Forzathon events, there are also a number of new seasonal races (including extra Fortune Island Autumn Season races), PR stunts, and two new free vehicles for Car Pass owners!

“Challenge of Our Rival” #Forzathon

Check out the complete Challenge list below:

HOW TO: Change system date in OS X ...
HOW TO: Change system date in OS X from Terminal
  • Ambition: Own and drive a car that aspired to be so much more than just a regular four-door sedan, the 1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR
  • Cool Dude: The Lancer GSR ’99 added improved cooling and durability to the Evolution series. Try it out by earning a total of 12 stars from Speed Zones
  • Red vs. Blue: In the ’90s, Mitsubishi and Subaru had a fierce rivalry when it came to rallying. Prove your Lancer GSR ’99 is the best by winning 5 Dirt Racing Series Events
  • Rally Champion: Now that you’ve win everything, bask in your success and take your Lancer GSR ’99 out for a 10 mile (16 km) drive

NOTE: These challenges must be done in the order they appear in the list above. 

Ambition

Simple start, simply purchase (if you don’t already own one) the 1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR for 28.000 CR. I’d recommend getting the Bodykit preset or souping it up to the top of S1 through the Tune shop.

Cool Dude

Next, head over to some Speed Zones and get 12 stars by repeating them.

Red vs. Blue

This one will be the longest challenge this week. Filter out all the races so you’re left with Dirt Racing Series events. Win five of these to continue on to the last challenge. Yes, you have to win so set your difficulty accordingly.

Rally Champion

Finally, cruise around the map until you’ve driven for 10 miles (16 kms) to finish up and get your 100 or 200 #Forzathon Points for the week.

#Forzathon Shop

The Autumn #Forzathon Shop has also been updated. This week, you can snag the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Forza Edition for 400 FP and the legendary 2018 Porsche Cayenne Turbo for 600 FP. Also up for grabs are the legendary Blue Biker Jersey and Blue Biker Trousers for 75 FP a piece. As usual, you can pick up Wheelspins for 40 FP or Super Wheelspins for 150 FP each.
