Forza Horizon 6 Achievement Overview

Forza Horizon 6 launches with 57 achievements worth exactly 1,000 Gamerscore. They are available on Xbox Series X|S and PC (Microsoft Store, Xbox App, and Steam). The PlayStation 5 version launches on January 26, 2027, with Premium Edition early access from January 21, 2027. The PS5 version will have 58 trophies — the same 57 plus a Platinum.

The achievement list covers four main areas: Wristband progression through the Horizon Festival, Stamp collection through Discover Japan, collectibles across Japan’s map, and a set of multiplayer and miscellaneous tasks. Most achievements unlock naturally as you play. The ones that require dedicated effort are clearly identified in this guide so you can plan around them early.

There are no missable achievements. Every task remains available after the story ends, and nothing is gated to a one-time story moment you could accidentally skip. Difficulty has no effect on any achievement — you can play on the easiest Tourist setting with Autodrive enabled, which lets the AI drive and win races for you automatically.

Achievement Roadmap: Step-by-Step to 1,000G

Follow this order for the most efficient run. Steps overlap heavily — doing them in parallel is always faster than finishing one completely before starting the next.

Welcome to Japan — one of the first achievements you unlock in FH6

Step 1: Horizon Festival Gold Wristband and 57 Race Wins

The main campaign goal is earning the Gold Wristband across all seven tiers: Yellow, Green, Blue, Pink, Orange, Purple, and Gold. Each tier unlocks its own achievement. When scrolling the world map, look for events marked “Horizon Festival” and complete these to build your Festival Points bar. Once the bar fills, a Wristband Event appears — complete it to advance.

At the same time, work toward Racing Aficionado by winning 57 Horizon Festival Race Events. Play on Tourist difficulty if you want guaranteed wins. PR Stunts also contribute Festival Points and give a Discover Japan boost simultaneously — attempt each one but do not waste time chasing three stars on difficult ones. Moving to the next stunt after one or two stars is more time-efficient. For a full breakdown of how the wristband system works, see our Wristband Progression System guide.

Step 2: Discover Japan Gold Stamp and Collectibles

Forza Horizon 6 Discover Japan rewards ready to collect — Discover Japan rewards ready to collect

Run the Discover Japan path in parallel with your festival races. The fastest sources for Discover Japan Points are Touge Battles, Street Races, Story Events, buying Player Houses, and smashing Regional Mascots. Aim to clean up collectible achievements during this step since the map should be largely revealed by now, making fast travel between them easy.

Collectibles needed for achievements: 9 Treasure Cars (Treasure Hunter), 200 Mascots (Gotta Smash ‘Em All), and 200 Bonus Boards (A Few Splinters Is Nothing!). See our Discover Japan Stamps guide for full progression tips.

Step 3: All 81 Stars in Story Events

Story Events are the yellow badge icons on the map. You need three stars in every individual story race for the Storyteller achievement — 81 stars total across all 27 story races. This is one of the two hardest achievements and requires solid driving. Combine this step with your Discover Japan progress since Story Events are one of the best Stamp point sources. If you are struggling, lower the difficulty and retry events until you hit three stars.

Step 4: Maximum Job Promotion

For The Boss, reach the maximum Level 9 promotion at the Tokyo City Food Delivery job. Go to the blue “Tokyo City Food Delivery” icon in central Tokyo and keep completing deliveries. Your level is tracked by total credits earned from deliveries, not the number of runs. Check your current level by hovering over the map icon or going to Campaign → Collection Journal → Discover Japan → Tokyo City Food Delivery.

Step 5: Miscellaneous Cleanup

Most miscellaneous achievements unlock naturally during Steps 1 through 4. After those are done, check your remaining list and clean up anything outstanding. By this point you will have access to all game content, so nothing is blocked.

Step 6: Horizon Play — Online Achievements

Save the online grind for last, but do not ignore it entirely during Steps 1–5. There are 7 online achievements total. The quick ones are easily knocked out in a session or two. Maxed Out — reaching Level 100 in Horizon Play — is the single most time-consuming achievement in the game. Note that the June Series 2 update reduced the XP required for Levels 26–100, so the grind is less severe than it was at launch — older guides that describe hundreds of hours may overstate the current requirement. Winning earns more XP than losing, so play seriously in Spec Racing and Touge Showdown to accelerate the climb. See our dedicated Horizon Play multiplayer progression and ranking guide for tips on leveling up efficiently.

Hardest Achievements in Forza Horizon 6

Maxed Out (30G) — Level 100 in Horizon Play

This is the longest achievement in FH6 by a significant margin. The June Series 2 update reduced the XP required for Levels 26–100, so the grind is more manageable than it was at launch — if you read older guides describing it as taking hundreds of hours, that assessment was based on the pre-patch curve. That said, it still requires consistent long-term online play. Winning earns significantly more XP than finishing lower, so playing competitively in Spec Racing is the fastest consistent method. Do not save this entirely for the end — drip-feeding online sessions throughout your playthrough keeps it from becoming a wall.

Storyteller (10G) — 81 Stars from Story Events

This requires three stars in all 27 individual story races marked with yellow badge icons on the map. The game provides loaner cars for these events, so you do not need to own specific vehicles. The challenge is simply performing well enough for three stars in each one. Lower the difficulty if you are struggling — Tourist difficulty still counts. All events are fully replayable.

The Horizon Cartographer (50G) — Reveal the Entire Map

Japan is the biggest Forza Horizon map ever made. Revealing the full map requires driving or using Autodrive across every road section. The most efficient approach is to enable Autodrive and let the AI drive along road networks systematically. You can fast travel to any road you have already discovered, so use this to jump between unexplored sections rather than driving the entire map linearly.

Gotta Smash ‘Em All (30G) — 200 Regional Mascots

There are 200 Regional Mascot statues across Japan’s map. None require any skill — just driving over each one. The challenge is locating them all. Use the map filter system to display mascot icons once you have revealed enough of the map, then sweep each region systematically. Each mascot also earns 5,000 CR and contributes Discover Japan Points, making them worth hunting even before you are chasing the achievement.

Played-List (30G) — All Festival Playlist Points in a Season

This requires completing enough content within a single Festival Playlist Series to earn every available point. Each series runs for a fixed time, so you need to complete seasonal races, PR challenges, and other series-specific events consistently across the active season. Check in weekly to stay on track. Our Reward Pass guide and seasonal events guide cover what each week’s playlist offers.

Easy Achievements to Grab in the First Hour

Several achievements unlock within the first hour of play without any deliberate effort. These include Welcome to Japan, First of Many, Welcome to Horizon, Stamping Ground, Working 9 to 5, Just Getting Started, On the Board, Smashscot, and Carkour! Together these represent 80 Gamerscore you can collect simply by following the game’s tutorial flow.

PS5 Trophy Information

Forza Horizon 6 launches on PlayStation 5 on January 26, 2027. Premium Edition players get early access from January 21, 2027. The PS5 trophy list will have 58 entries — the same 57 achievements converted directly to trophies, plus a Platinum trophy awarded for unlocking all others. The requirements for every trophy will be identical to the Xbox and PC achievement list. The same roadmap and tips in this guide apply to the Platinum run.

Useful Tips for Achievement Hunters

Use Autodrive on Tourist difficulty for race wins and map exploration. The AI drives and wins automatically, removing skill as a barrier for most achievements.
Stack activities: smash mascots on the way between events, photograph landmarks mid-drive, and complete Touge races near Street Races. Chaining activities cuts total time significantly.
Unfog the map early using Autodrive. Once the whole map is revealed, fast travel makes collectible hunting fast and clean.
Do not chase three-star PR Stunts obsessively. There are more than required for the Gold Wristband. Attempt each once and move on unless you get three stars naturally.
Check the Collection Journal regularly for milestone credit payouts under Campaign → Collection Journal. These stack up unnoticed and give useful bonus credits for car purchases.
Start Horizon Play early. The first 25 levels grant Wristband Festival Points, making early online sessions doubly productive. Do not leave Maxed Out entirely for the end — drip-feed online sessions throughout your playthrough.
Barn Finds give free cars toward the Collector achievement. See our Barn Find locations guide to add 15 cars to your garage without spending credits.
Treasure Cars also count toward the Collector achievement. Nine free cars from exploration alone — see all locations including the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution III and the Nissan Safari Turbo.
Buy the Yashiki House immediately (10,000 CR) for the Blank Slate achievement and to unlock Estate progression as early as possible.
