In brief

The #FishInAPod photo challenge asks you to head to the Minamino Edamame zone of Horizon Stadium, located in the Shimanoyama region. Once there, simply frame your vehicle with the Edamame mascot in the background to complete the challenge and earn two Season Points along with the legendary 'So Cute' emote.

New week, new photo challenge for the Horizon Mascot Party event in Forza Horizon 6. This time, head to the Minamino Edamame zone for the #PeaInAPod challenge. Nothing technically complicated, but if you don't know where to look, you might end up driving in circles for a while. The reward: two Seasonal Points to unlock the spring vehicles and the legendary 'So Cute' emote.

Finding the Mascot Party

The Horizon Mascot Party is located in the Shimanoyama region, to the west of the map. Look for a large circular area near the water: that's the Horizon Stadium. A purple globe-shaped icon lets you get there directly via fast travel, no need to drive all the way.

Once there, you'll notice that every region of Japan is represented in its own dedicated section, each with its own mascots. It's pretty well done visually, but it also means you need to know where to go so you don't waste time.

Locating the Edamame Zone

After fast traveling, turn right and stay on the main path. You'll come across a Time Trial along the way: ignore it, it has nothing to do with the challenge. Keep going straight and you'll eventually spot cardboard cutouts of the Edamame mascot, along with 'Minamino' signs. That's where it happens.

One small detail that changes everything compared to the Dango challenge in Tokyo City during the previous autumn season: no need to get your character out of the vehicle for the photo. Here, the car alone is enough in the frame, which makes the whole thing much quicker to complete.

Do these collectible photo challenges motivate you to explore the Forza Horizon 6 map?
