A novel search for anomalous production of four-top-quark events is presented. It offers a unique way to probe top-philic resonances (Z) which can only be produced in association with top quarks (ttZtttt) and thus are inaccessible by conventional searches. The Run 2 LHC proton-proton collision data recorded with the ATLAS detector is used in the search to select events with exactly one reconstructed lepton. This selection ensures high signal acceptance while suppressing multijet process events. Furthermore, the particular configuration where the resonance decays fully hadronically is investigated. A potential signal would manifest itself as a localized excess over the steeply falling mass spectrum of the two top quarks with the highest momentum which are reconstructed in their hadronic decay mode (mtt). In this talk, an overview of the analysis strategy is given, highlighting the data-driven background estimation.
