Differences between the Horizon Life and Horizon Solo modes in Forza Horizon 4 Forza Horizon 4 Guide and Tips
Last update: 15 October 2018
This chapter of Forza Horizon 4 walkthrough guide describes the differences between the online Horizon Life mode and the offline Horizon Solo mode. Below, you will also find some information about the additional activities available when playing online.
Horizon Life and Horizon Solo differences
The default gameplay mode in Forza Horizon 4 is the online Horizon Life mode. The in-game world is filled with other players that you can join to form convoys, play with or against when completing most of the activities or even challenge for 1v1 duels. The Forzathon Live public events are a huge attraction, as with each time you participate, you can receive 30 Forzathon points that can be spent in the in-game store. The map also includes the information where exactly you can play the online PvP modes.
You do not have to worry that other players will spoil your map exploration. Upon approaching your car, they turn into ghosts and drive past you without colliding with you.
All online activities are unavailable in the Horizon Solo mode. Instead of other players, it is the game's AI that drives cars around you - the so-called Drivatars. They are not ghosts, though, and you can collide with them. You can also challenge them to a duel - in such case you race against the computer representing other player's nickname.
