Sumo (Remix)

Overview

Sumo (Remix) is an Adversary Mode for 2 to 16 players in two to four teams, released on October 2, 2018, during Sumo (Remix) Week as a continuation of the After Hours update (1.44). It reworks the classic Sumo mode onto large platforms high above the map. There are seven versions, set near Del Perro Beach, the El Gordo Lighthouse, the Zancudo Bridge, Vespucci Beach, Paleto Cove, Paleto Bay and Procopio Beach.

How it works

When a round starts, part of the platform becomes the safe zone, and players have 30 seconds to drive in and stay there. Any vehicle outside the zone when the timer hits zero is destroyed. A new, smaller safe zone then appears somewhere else, eventually shrinking to room for about two cars. Rounds last four minutes, and sections of the platform can disappear at random. Handbrakes are disabled.

If members of more than one team are still alive at the four-minute mark, a sudden-death circle closes in until only one team remains. A round ends once every player on the opposing teams has been knocked out.

Tips

• Head toward the next zone early instead of fighting for the current one at the last second.
• Without a handbrake, brake early and carefully to avoid sliding off.
• Team up to shove lone rivals out of the zone in the final seconds.

Rewards and unlocks

• Available from Rank 1.
• GTA$ and RP based on the match result.
