Forza Horizon 5 has brought a lot of features over from Playground Games' previous entry in its arcade-style racing franchise, including weekly Forzathon Challenges in the Festival Playlist. There are many types of tasks that can earn players points toward new cars, Wheelspins, and other rewards.
For its first official week of Forza Horizon 5 challenges, players have a Photo Challenge called Mural Compass that asks them to take a picture of a Modern Sports Car beside the Star 27 Mural in Mulege. This will net them an easy 2 points toward unlocking this week's cars, and they can also be spent in the Forzathon Shop.
How to Find Star 27's Mural in Mulage in Forza Horizon 5
Mulege is the location the Casa Bella house is located in, southeast of the Baja California landmark. Players will naturally unlock Casa Bella after their first few races. There is also a Barn Find location in Forza Horizon 5 nearby. Before going to the Star 27 Mural, players should make sure they are in a Modern Sports Car first.
To change to a Modern Sports Car, go to the "Change Car" option from the "Cars" section in the pause menu, or select "My Cars" while in a house. The list can be filtered by pressing the Y button on Xbox, and navigating down to "Modern Sports Cars". Select it, press B, and then choose any car from the list.
Star 27's Mural in Forza Horizon 5 is located in the middle intersection of Mulage, south of Casa Bella, and just north of the middlemost XP board. It is a bright picture of the desert and an abstract face painted on the side of a house, beside some tall cacti. Finding Murals may not be linked to Achievements in Forza Horizon 5, but knowing how to easily spot one will come in handy for future weekly challenges and tasks in the main campaign.
Approach it while in a Modern Sports Car, and press up on the d-pad to enter Photo Mode, which can reveal incredible detail like in The Last of Us 2. Players only need to get the mural and their car in the shot to complete this challenge, however. Snap a picture with A, and the task is completed.
In addition to the 2 Forzathon Points, players will also unlock the "Beautiful!" Forza Link phrase, which can be mapped to the d-pad, and used to communicate with others. With its launch on Game Pass, and with over 1 million players before Forza Horizon 5's official release, there should be plenty of opportunities to show off this phrase to fellow players.
Forza Horizon 5 is out now for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
