Forza Horizon 6<\/a> takes the Horizon festival to the beautiful land of Japan. With sprawling green fields, densely built-up cities and winding roads down mountainsides, it\u2019s the perfect place to host a festival all about speed and driving prowess. While the initial progression focuses on climbing the ranks to maximise wristband levels, earning the gold wristband is by no means the end of the Horizon festival. Here\u2019s what to do once the main racing action is in the rear-view mirror.\"Cherry<\/a><\/p>\n

The Forza Horizon 6 map is full of beautiful open roads<\/p>\n

\u00a9 Xbox Game Studios<\/p>\n

There are almost 700 roads that stretch across the map in Forza Horizon 6 and the game keeps a precise tally of how many you\u2019ve driven down. Driving down 90 percent of a road won\u2019t cut it, though. Players need to make sure they\u2019ve driven down the whole thing for it to count.<\/p>\n

While there\u2019s no proper reward for driving down every road, it does become a rather compelling completionist milestone to tick off. Achieving 100 percent map exploration also unlocks \u2018The Horizon Cartographer\u2019 achievement rewarded for revealing the entire map.<\/p>\n

02<\/p>\n

Hunt down all the collectibles<\/p>\n

There are 200 bonus boards and 200 mascots to smash through in Forza Horizon 6, scattered across the entire map.<\/p>\n

While mascots generally occupy straightforward roadside positions or open fields, the bonus boards require creative problem-solving. Many boards sit tucked away on rooftops or hidden behind structures, requiring drivers to launch vehicles through the air using environmental hazards that act as convenient makeshift ramps.<\/p>\n

Completing the hunt rewards players with both the \u2018A Few Splinters is Nothing!\u2019 and \u2018Gotta Smash \u2018Em All\u2019 achievements.<\/p>\n

Ultimate collectors can even go around taking photos of the various cars in the game to improve their Explorer ranks, too.<\/p>\n

03<\/p>\n

Beat high scores and top the global leaderboards<\/p>\n

PR stunts offer an exhilarating twist on the traditional racing of Forza Horizon 6. Whether it\u2019s launching vehicles off massive danger sign ramps, clocking maximum speeds through camera traps, or stringing together massive drifts down winding mountain passes, these side activities are a great way to burn time in the game.<\/p>\n

Earning a three-star rating doesn\u2019t mean the job is done. Every stunt also has its own online leaderboard, allowing players to go up against their friends and other racers around the world.<\/p>\n

Nothing quite gives the \u2018one more go\u2019 vibe than seeing a friend marginally beating you on the leaderboard.<\/p>\n

04<\/p>\n

Customise cars with intricate designs and perfect tuning set-ups\"Engine<\/a><\/p>\n

There\u2019s an extensive number of tuning and customisation options<\/p>\n

\u00a9 Xbox Game Studios<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a huge Forza Horizon community that spends countless hours creating incredible liveries and designs for their favourite cars. Whether it\u2019s a Nissan Skyline with the same silver and blue design as Brian O\u2019Conner\u2019s in 2 Fast 2 Furious, or a Dodge Viper that looks just like Lightning McQueen, it can (probably) be found in the online livery library.<\/p>\n

For the artistically inclined, the deep livery editor allows the creation of unique, custom paint and decal designs from scratch.<\/p>\n

Beyond aesthetics, tuning customisation is similarly in-depth. Adjusting tyre pressures, shortening gear ratios, or fine-tuning suspension stiffness can completely change the feel of a car.<\/p>\n

05<\/p>\n

Unlock every achievementThere are 57 achievements to unlock in Forza Horizon 6<\/a>, and while half are earned from naturally playing through the game, others require more time and attention. Whether it\u2019s visiting another player\u2019s estate, parking the 2025 GR GT Prototype at a Car Meet, or earning 100 levels in Horizon Play, there\u2019s plenty to keep working towards after crossing the final finish line in the main single-player \u2018story\u2019.<\/p>\n

Achievement hunting isn\u2019t for everyone, but it can act as the perfect checklist of everything that Forza Horizon 6 has to offer. Just be prepared to spend a while playing online.<\/p>\n

06<\/p>\n

Perfect a home\u2019s garage design<\/p>\n

The houses in Forza Horizon 6 don\u2019t offer a huge amount of functionality, but for players who have dreamed of having a stylish garage to show off their favourite cars, then the garage system will be a petrolhead\u2019s paradise.<\/p>\n

Each purchasable house<\/a> lets players customise its garage however they want, with various furniture and items to spruce up the place. Make it a mess of parts and boxes, or keep it squeaky clean.<\/p>\n

Beat each season\u2019s \u2018live\u2019 content\"A<\/a><\/p>\n

Take on seasonal challenges in the snowy winter weather<\/p>\n

\u00a9 Xbox Game Studios<\/p>\n

Each week, a new season comes to Forza Horizon 6. This doesn\u2019t just mean new challenges to beat. The weather actually changes with the season, too. This can make it a bit more difficult to complete certain PR stunts and challenges.<\/p>\n

The challenges each season brings are a great reason to check in every week. There are races, PR stunts with specific criteria, treasure hunts, and much more. Completing these rewards points can unlock special, limited-time rewards, giving players ample reason to keep coming back each week.<\/p>\n

When the standard races get a bit long in the tooth, Forza Horizon 6\u2019s EventLab system offers total creative freedom. It allows players to build custom tracks, design their own routes, place checkpoints anywhere on the map, and set custom weather and vehicle restrictions to suit their taste.<\/p>\n

Fancy an epic race of endurance in the slowest vehicles in the game, or an off-road, snowy escapade in vehicles that are definitely not suited to the harsh terrain? Make it happen!<\/p>\n

There are over 600 cars to find and drive in the Horizon festival<\/p>\n

\u00a9 Xbox Game Studios<\/p>\n

Forza Horizon 6 is a true celebration of car culture, as much as it is a typical racing game. With over 600 cars at launch (and more to be added in the future), completionists have plenty to buy from the Autoshow,
