Expand your automotive horizons in Japan with Italian Exotics, the latest content update arriving for all Forza Horizon 6 players.
The Italian Passion Car Pack launches on Tuesday, July 14, at 3:00 PM UTC. Players who own the Forza Horizon 6 Premium Edition will gain immediate access to these four exclusive additions. For everyone else, the pack will be available as a standalone purchase on Steam.
Over the coming month, the Festival Playlist will debut three iconic vehicles: the 2024 Lamborghini Temerario, the 2022 Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder, and the 1984 De Tomaso Pantera GT5. Additionally, the Horizon Stadium’s Aftermarket dealership is undergoing an Italian makeover, offering rare Wheelspin-exclusive models, fresh EventLab props, a charming Tank Latte Cup collectible, and four new additions to your Car Pass garage.
Game Improvements and Release Notes
The Italian Exotics update becomes available for download on Monday, July 13, at 5:00 PM UTC. The new Festival Playlist series kicks off shortly after on Thursday, July 16, at 2:30 PM UTC.
Based on direct input from the Forza Feedback Portal, we have implemented several key refinements:
- Reduced aggressive AI collision behavior during corner entries.
- Resolved a bug where the LINK “Clean Sweep” Skill failed to register.
- Lifted Auction House price restrictions for vehicles not featured in the Autoshow.
- Patched various exploits, including AFK credit/XP farming, Estate-based Skill Point farming, and “The Eliminator” invulnerability glitches.

Leaderboard Maintenance
To ensure fair competition, our team is addressing unrealistic entries on the Leaderboards caused by past physics exploits and unauthorized vehicle configurations. Consequently, we are performing a complete wipe of the affected leaderboards following this patch. While this affects some legitimate times, it provides a clean slate for all competitors. Please note that progress toward your Collection Journal items will remain intact.
The Italian Passion Car Pack
Elevate your garage with four masterpieces of Italian engineering, tailored for cruising, racing, or touring the Japanese countryside.
The collection features the 2025 Ferrari F80, 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB4 Spider, 2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm, and 1990 Alfa Romeo SE 048SP. These vehicles will be automatically added to the garages of Premium Edition owners starting July 14.
New EventLab Props
We are expanding your creative toolkit with 52 new props. From “Horizon Decades” branding and industrial scaffolding to urban amenities like coin lockers, vending machines, and detailed rural statuary, you have more ways than ever to customize your EventLab creations.
