The home of the new mode is the existing Shimanoyama Circuit. While lapping the course, points are earned the same way they are in Horizon Drift and at Drift Zones – but Drift Attack adds a new scoring layer to consider with the addition of “Clipping Zones” around the track. These zones will boost scores for drifts executed within their marked boundaries.Drift Attack features the same in-world leaderboard functionality of Time Attacks, and has been integrated into the Horizon Festival campaign (unlocked by obtaining the yellow wristband). Knocking off Drift Attack Collection Journal tasks will score you the Drift Attack racesuit and helmet, plus a brand-new Forza Edition car: the 1990 Jaguar XJ-S Forza Edition. Pleasingly, a stock XJ-S has also been added to the Autoshow for all players to purchase at any time.
