We move into the Autumn months and Series 2 of the Forza Horizon 6 Festival Playlist Challenges. Once again we come with all the hints, tips and handy guides you will need to navigate your way through the events on offer.
The Series 2 Autumn challenges will run from June 25th right up to and including some of July 2nd. That means you should well have plenty of time to load up Forza Horizon 6 and get involved. Remember, you can play through Game Pass if you like.
And why would you want to play? Well, Series 2 Autumn will allow you to hit the festival, stacking up Festival Playlist Points by completing events across the map, unlocking the featured seasonal rewards before the next season rotation arrives. We’ll move on to Series 2 Winter and Spring guides after this one too.
Here’s everything included in the Forza Horizon 6 Series 2 Autumn Festival Playlist, along with our recommended cars, tune setups in the form of share codes, and challenge tips. You may well need them.
What Is The Forza Horizon 6 Festival Playlist?
If you’re new around these parts, the Festival Playlist is Forza Horizon 6’s rotating weekly challenge system, offering players the chance to complete seasonal events in exchange for Playlist Points, reward cars, Wheelspins and Credits.
Each Series lasts four weeks and is split into Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Spring editions, with Season 2 running from June 18th for 4 weeks. From there, we move into Season 3. Should you be looking for all our Challenge Guides, we’ve got you covered.
Completing events across the map increases your seasonal progress, unlocking exclusive rewards before the Playlist resets the following week.

- Points – 40 | Reward – 1993 Schuppan 962CR (Epic)
We move onto the 90’s for this week’s series of events, and the cars here look pretty good, even if you will need a whole packet of brave pills to drive the TVR! The Monthly cars aren’t bad either, with an exclusive Porsche and a Lotus to work towards.
- Points – 80 | Reward – 1993 Porsche 911 Turbo S Leichtbau (Legendary)
- Points – 160 | Reward – 2018 Lotus Exige Cup 430 (Epic)
Event: Monthly Rivals
- Points: 4pts
- Circuit: Narai-Juku Circuit
- Car:1993 Porsche 911 Turbo S LeichtbauÂ
- Reward: Super Wheelspin
Different circuit, different car, same basic setup: get a clean lap. It can be the slowest lap ever as long as you don’t hit a wall! Easier said than done, as this thing likes to slide…
Event: Weekly Challenge
- Points:
- Challenge: Syclone Season
- Car: 1991 GMC Syclone
- Reward: 25,000 Credits
At the time of release, this was the world’s fastest pickup truck. Somehow managing to get only 280 BHP out of a 4.3Litre turbo charged engine, this made delivering stuff a whole lot quicker! It will set you back a hefty 46,000 credits at the Autoshow.
Or, do things out of order and complete the On the Trail championship for a free one. Every little helps!
I went a little nuts with tuning this, and the share code is 868682845.
Step 1 – Own and drive the car. Simple enough! As long as you have the pennies…Or have won the race!
Step 2 – Complete two runs at the Irokawa Quarter Mile drag strip. Easy peasy
Step 3 – Earn 3 Awesome Wreckage Skills in the car. Smash some stuff up!.
Step 4 – Now simply win a Street Race. Shouldn’t be too tricky given how fast this thing is! I recommend a modicum of caution though, as it is almost too fast for its tyres!
Event: Daily Challenges
- Points: 1pt x7
- Challenge: 7 Individual Challenges
- Car: Varies
- Reward: Credits
Daily challenges return, and as the name suggests, a new one is unlocked every day. Keep checking back to find out what you need to do! There is an achievement for earning every point in a season, and these are key to doing that.
Event: Photo Challenge
- Points: 2pts
- Challenge: #SnapCat
- Car: Any Jaguar from the 90’s
- Reward:Car Horn: Jaguar Growl
Nice and easy this week, simply photograph a Jaaaaag from the 90’s. Any time, any place, anywhere – it doesn’t matter! My XJ220 is up top.
Event: Collectables – Bamboo Bash
- Points: 3pts
- Challenge: Smash stuff up!
- Car: No Restriction
- Reward: Super Wheelspin
We need to smash 30 bamboo for this challenge. How hard can it be? Especially as there is a Bamboo Grove alongside the Arashiyama Run Speed Zone. Just drive off road a bit!
See the map for details.
Event: Seasonal Championship – Road
- Points: 5pts
- Championship: Cosworth Your While
- Car: 1990’s Retro Muscle – B Class
- Reward: Ford Escort Cosworth 1992
90’s Retro Muscle, eh? Why not a Mustang, as usual? I chose a Mustang SVT Cobra R, tweaked it a bit, and the share code is 154147029. Nice tyres and suspension, stock brakes: what could possibly go wrong?
Win all three races solo, or best two of three if you’re in a convoy, and the prize will be yours.
Event: Seasonal Championship – Dirt
- Points: 5pts
- Championship: On the Trail
- Car:1990’s Retro Rally – C Class
- Reward:GMC Syclone 1991
Rally Cars usually means an Evo or Scooby, but I went a little left field and took a Toyota Celica GT-Four St205. The share code for mine is 618152220.
Event: Seasonal Championship -The Trial
- Points: 5pts
- Championship: Driving in the 90s
- Car: 1990’s Retro Supercars – A Class
- Reward: Lambo Diablo GTR
Lets hope more people get the memo about this being a team event this week, shall we? Slamming your team mates into barriers just ensures we all lose. And for pity’s sake please tune your car for this one.
With that off my chest, we need a 90’s Retro Supcar for this event, and I chose a Ferrari F355 Berlinetta. The share code for mine is 425096775.
Event: Speed Trap
- Points: Wheelspin
- Location:Nangan Turn
- Car: 1990’s – A Class
- Reward: Wheelspin
Off road again for this Speed Trap, and we need to hit 110 mph to clear it. I used the weird Off road Viper that we all seem to have been gifted. Dodge Viper ACR FE to be precise.
Event: Danger Sign
- Points: 2pts
- Location:Â Mt Fuji View
- Car: 1990’s -A Class
- Reward: Wheelspin
We need to clear 270 metres for this one, and so I chose something light and fast: the same Viper as above! Hit the ramp at over 140 mph to clear the target.
Event: Trailblazer
- Points: 2pts
- Location :Kudarizaka
- Car: 1990’s – B Class
- Reward: Wheelspin
Off road again and we need to have 40 seconds or more left on the clock. Why they have changed to rules for this event I don’t know, but I chose a 1998 Subaru Impreza 22b, and in stock trim.
Stick to the valley, but be careful of the last hump, it can flip the car.
Event: Horizon Drift- F.RI.E.N.D.S
- Points: 2pts
- Location: Online
- Car: A drifty one!
- Reward: Mazda Rx-7 1992
Do some sliding online, and attempt to earn 3 Link Drift Skills while you do so. Could be any class, so I can’t help there, but give it a go.
Event: Seasonal Job – Tokyo City Food Delivery
- Points: 2pts
- Car: Not required
- Reward: Forzalink Phrase – It’s working!It’s WORKING!
Put in a full shift on the food delivery job in Tokyo.The game defines a full shift as “three deliveries in a row”. Go out there and live your best Deliveroo life.
Fastest Ways To Earn Playlist Points This Week
If you’re looking to unlock the seasonal rewards quickly, you may want to prioritise the easier activities first. If that is indeed the case, and pretty much as always, we recommend ticking off the Photo challenge first – it’s the most simple way to rack up the points. Then hit up the Bamboo Bash, followed by some Uber food deliveries.
This should allow you to stack up a healthy hit of progress through the Playlist before even touching the longer Seasonal Championships. Just leave The Trial to last.
Follow our lead from up above and you should find yourself powering through the Festival Playlist challenges in Forza Horizon 6 for Series 2 Autumn. And make sure you come back this time next week as we provide you with a neat little guide to completing everything found in the rest of the Festival Playlist Challenges for Series 2, Winter and then Spring.
As always, we’d love to hear if any of our cars and tunes helped you out, so feel free to get involved in the comments.
And remember, you’ll need a copy of Forza Horizon 6 in your digital library. It’s available through Game Pass if you prefer. Just head to the Xbox Store and enjoy a download.
