Splitscreen is one feature I believe is missing from Forza Horizon 5 and I get not having splitscreen in freeroam, I think that it would be super cool to have a splitscreen mode in races. The way I envision it being implemented is when the player begins a race, there is a button to enable splitscreen alongside the options for co-op and pvp. When they select it, a pop up appears, asking how many players are playing (I imagine 2-4) telling them to connect the required number of controllers. Then another menu appears, detailing the settings (PVP, Co-op, if there are Ai, etc.), then the screen divides into however many players there are. Each player then picks a car from the host’s garage. When each player confirms their car choice, the race begins. At the end, only the host gets the rewards.
I know it can be hard But split screen would be lovely for horizon
