Forza Horizon 6 Removes Two Major Exploits In Latest Xbox & PC Update

Forza Horizon 6 received a hotfix update on June 18th targeting two major exploits that were allowing players to gain unfair advantages in the game. Playground Games released the patch across Xbox and PC platforms to address these gameplay-breaking issues.

The primary exploit identified was in The Eliminator game mode, which was enabling players to earn hundreds of millions of in-game credits from a single playthrough. This represented a significant imbalance in the game’s economy and progression system. Playground Games has implemented a rollback mechanism for affected players, reducing any ill-gotten credits earned through the exploit to a maximum of 10 million credits.

In addition to fixing the exploit itself, The Eliminator mode has been fully restored and returned to normal playability for the community. As a goodwill gesture to players impacted by both the exploit availability and its subsequent patching, Forza Horizon 6 developer Playground Games is distributing a 2021 McLaren Sabre to all players.

The update represents Playground Games’ continued efforts to maintain game balance and prevent exploit abuse in the live service title. While the article excerpt does not detail the second exploit mentioned in the headline, the developer’s swift response underscores their commitment to addressing gameplay integrity issues promptly.
