in gaming •  5 years ago  (edited)

mario-kart-horizon-xbox-forza-horizon-4-dlc-super-mario-snes.jpg

In the game Forza Horizon 4 for Windows 10 PC and Xbox One there is a so-called "Route Creator" you can create your own racetracks / events with. Events can be shared with the community. The idea was to recreate Super Mario Kart (Super Nintendo) routes in Forza Horizon 4. Today 20 Events (4 Seasons a 5 Events = 20 Events total) are ready to play.

  1. Single Player
  2. Multiplayer rules - Racer vs. Koopa Hunter

  6. Thanks

1. Singleplayer

All events are best suited for PvP Multiplayer, but you can also enjoy them as a single player. The tracks are optimized for B700 / A800 vehicles. Terrain: 70% Cross Country & Dirt, 30% Road.

2. Multiplayer rules - Racer vs. Koopa Hunter

Pretty simple rules: The racers fight for the first place, the Koopa Hunters stand in the way.

Cars Racer

  • Car Class: B700
  • 10 Players
  • Color: red (optional: fancy Mario paints)

Cars Koopa Shell Hunter

  • Car Class: A800 - S1 900
  • 2 Players
  • Color: 1x green, 1x blue

Racer

Win the race, get first!
Allowed: Push opponents sideways past checkpoints, against trees, buildings and other static objects. You can mess with Koopa Hunters, at your own risk!
Forbidden: Divebombs: Kill enemies from behind. Change vehicle between races.

Green Koopa Shell

Constantly hunting down the top three racers. Other players don't need to be afraid, but should keep distance, because collateral damage is to be feared, sometimes even with intention :-)

Allowed: Push enemies sideways past checkpoints, against trees, buildings and other static objects. You can switch vehicles between races.
Forbidden: Divebombs: Kill enemies from behind.

Blue Koopa Shell

Absolute killer! The ultimate weapon! Invented by Chuck Norris. Bowser himself. He was also called Sauron. Thanos was cloned from his cells. Darth Vader was his babysitter. Blue Koopa Shell has only one goal: hunt the best, hunt the first racer. Only the first racer!

Allowed: Everything! Change vehicle between races.
Forbidden: Nothing!
