Leaderboards

Reset all Rivals Leaderboards due to the presence of unrealistic entries (Bug 4443235).

Developers Notes:

These unrealistic entries have been achieved through the exploitation of glitches or obtained by using Drag Tires before the latest physics balance changes we’ve introduced on June 15.

Therefore, we’ve made the decision to proceed with a complete reset of the affected Leaderboards, which will be wiped as soon as these exploits get patched in the game.

We understand this will be disappointing to players with legitimate lap times; however, we’ve chosen this approach so that way everyone has a clean sheet to play with going forward. Regardless of the Leaderboards deletion, any clean times posted to earn the associated Collection Journal items for the Rivals will not be lost and will remain unlocked.

Our team are also looking into resolving some glitches that can be used to pollute PR Stunts Leaderboards with unrealistic scores, and while we don’t have a timeline yet, we do expect to perform a complete wipe of those Leaderboards once the fixes have rolled out.

Save issues update – ongoing investigation

We continue to work on improvements across all platforms to alleviate the issue of lost saves affecting some players in Forza Horizon 6.

The XBOX team have rolled out updates for XBOX Series X|S and PC to help improve these issues. The latest of these was on July 2, so please ensure your devices are up to date.

With this update, if you experience data loss, you’ll be presented with a conflict dialog box the next time you load your game. To recover your progress, choose the Cloud save option, which restores your most recent saved version.
