Forza Motorsport 7's multiplayer modes have been further expanded with the introduction of class-based hopper lobbies to the game.
Covering all of Forza Motorsport 7's car classes, the class-based lobbies will also be permanent additions to the game's multiplayer lineup.
Unlike most of Forza Motorsport 7's gameplay offerings, the class-based lobbies aren't beholden to car type or homologation restrictions. However, Forza Motorsport 7 developer Turn 10 Studios has confirmed an array of cars have been blocked from the class hoppers – with the list of restricted vehicles including "SUVs, crossovers and most open-wheel cars, to name but a few".
In addition to the class-based lobbies, Turn 10 Studios has also introduced an array of open 'playground' lobbies to the game. The themes of these lobbies vary from the more off-beat Tag and Pass The It modes, to drivetrain-restricted drag racing and drifting.
Though these lobbies will now be a constant fixture in Forza Motorsport 7, themed hoppers will still be a key part of the game. As was the case before the class-based lobbies became permanent, themed hoppers will be introduced and replaced on a regular basis – though it's unknown if the class and playground hoppers will have an impact on how often the themed lobbies will be updated.
