1. Form a Convoy
Convoys are your main tool for grouping up with friends. The Convoy leader can set waypoints, start races, or trigger events for everyone in the group.
How to Create a Convoy:
Pause the game.
Go to the Online tab.
Select Convoy → Create a Convoy.
Invite friends from your platform’s friends list.
Pro Tip: If you don’t see friends in the open world right away, start a quick race. Completing it usually forces everyone into the same session.
2. Use Integrated “Car Meets”
Car Meets are physical gathering spots on the map, like Daikoku Parking Area or Okuibuki, allowing friends to meet without menus or loading screens.
Why They’re Useful:
Show off custom cars and liveries.
Download each other’s tunes instantly.
Jump directly into races from these locations.
Multiplayer Tip: Drag Meets at these spots let up to 12 players race with synchronized tree lights, giving realistic and fair starts.
3. Explore New Game Modes
FH6 introduces several multiplayer modes designed for groups:
Horizon CoLab: Build permanent structures and custom tracks with friends in real-time across the open world.
Touge Showdown: Perfect for mountain pass racing on Japan’s winding roads. Precision and technique matter more than speed alone.
Spec Racing: Everyone races cars with similar performance, making driving skill the deciding factor, not car value.
4. Cross-Platform Racing
FH6 supports full crossplay and cross-save at launch, letting you race with friends on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and soon, PlayStation 5.
Pro Tip: Link your Microsoft account to your platform to carry friends lists and progress across devices seamlessly.
