Tips for Progression

Complete all the race events on your map first, as they offer the best Wristband progression. Don’t skip specific race types just because you don’t like them, as you’ll need to complete them eventually to get to the island in Forza Horizon 6.

Delay side activities like Speed Traps, Danger Zones and Drift Zones until you have access to high-powered X-Class or R-Class cars.

This will make those tasks much faster to complete. Remember to use the Rewind feature when tackling these activities to fix mistakes without failing, which is helpful for difficult Speed Zones.

For your vehicle builds, the Ultima is a great, affordable option that you can upgrade to X-Class for most tasks. Make sure to equip rally suspension and appropriate tires, and double-check that your springs are not set too soft and your gear ratios are tuned properly.

You do not need to spend many credits on cars because the game rewards you with plenty of vehicles through Journal challenges as you progress. If you need help staying organized, filter your map to Festival Recommended using RB or R1 to see exactly what you need to do next.

Legend Island Features

Once you arrive at Legend Island, you gain access to the best ways to earn money, including long marathon events like the Colossus and the Goliath in Forza Horizon 6.

The island also features a fictional racetrack suited for time attacks and a dirt rally stage. The Speed Zone on the rally stage is quite difficult, so use Rewind and look for chances to cut corners to keep your speed above the required limit.
