Online leaderboards removal and new horizons to chase

Dear Horizon Chase community,

Having transparency as an important pillar of our relationship with our community, we would like to inform you with this update, we fixed several minor bugs and removed the current online leaderboard feature.

Our story with Horizon Chase started back in 2015. Since then, we have been updating our game with new features, DLCs, and community suggestions. We tried our best to make this game solid and available to everyone on different platforms. The story of our company will be forever marked by our relationship with this game.

However, now it’s time to look to the future.

We have a limited amount of resources, and they’re all aimed at our new projects. As you probably know, we launched Horizon Chase 2 on a mobile platform last year, and we’re working our best to make it available on other platforms. Now, it’s time to optimize the work of our team and let Horizon Chase Turbo thrive throughout the years more sustainably.

This final patch will bring everything we consider important for the game in the long term. Our community can be assured that we will come back and fix major relevant bugs (if they appear), but we are making a commitment to the future and letting our past solidify in our memories.

For this reason, it’s important to highlight: with this patch, all online leaderboards are removed. Players can still see their personal times, but they won’t be able to see their friends' and the global top performances. This is a way to reduce the maintenance of the game.

Although we won’t have it in-game anymore, we understand the value of this feature for a race and competitive game. For this reason, we will create a community leaderboard section on our Discord server and we will host the top times from our community in a new and collaborative way - where the players can manage and validate the best times. We know that this will not replace the original experience, but we are aiming to provide a fair way to compare the best times from our most-engaged players.

Also, the Discord server will be our definitive place for franchise fans. Not only will it have the new upcoming events of Horizon Chase 2, but we will make sure that Horizon Chase Turbo will have its space, and we still have some super secret skin codes to share with you all.

Finally, we would like to thank the patience and understanding of our community. We’re looking forward to making Horizon Chase 2 available to our franchise fans, and it’s only with a finish line that we can start a new lap.


Sincerely,
The Horizon Chase team.
