Forza Horizon 6 Hidden Areas and Vehicle Bugs Guide: Secret Locations, Unfinished Content and Sound Glitches
Forza Horizon 6 features a series of interesting game glitches, most of which don't negatively impact the gameplay experience and instead add a bit of fun.
These glitches were discovered and shared by players in the community, including how to enter "forbidden zones", display errors in vehicle models, and abnormal sound effects.
Next, I will introduce these glitches and menus one by one.
Hidden Locations and Buildings
First, some glitches that allow you to bypass map boundaries in FH 6 and find hidden locations.
Hidden Garage
This glitch is located in Minka House in Edo region of the game. Here, you can experience a special "wall-penetrating" gameplay.
Specifically: You need to drive your vehicle to back of the garage of this house and then try to squeeze the car body into the gap between the wall and two water tanks. By repeatedly adjusting the angle and direction, you can make the vehicle slowly "slide" into garage.
Once you are inside, you will find that the walls inside the garage are semi-transparent; obviously, the developers didn't create a model for this area. Although there's nothing particularly special about it, process of finding this hidden spot is fun in itself.
Hidden Dinosaur Model
The next exploit is located in Yashiki House. In FH 6, Yashiki House is a special player property located in Hokkaido, which unlocks Estate Builder feature.
This feature is a major highlight of the game, allowing players to freely build various facilities on their land, including tracks, decorations, and more. Among the buildable items is a dedicated Dinosaurs category.
And then, something interesting happens. If you enter Customizable Garage interface and carefully observe behind a specific wall, you can see a hidden dinosaur head model. If you adjust view downwards, you can even see the dinosaur's complete body.
Is this dinosaur model a bug accidentally overlooked by the developers, or an Easter egg intentionally left for players to discover? There's no official explanation yet.
Other Hidden Areas
Besides the two locations mentioned above, there are several other places to explore in FH 6.
First, by using the same trick in the upper left corner of Tokyo area on the map, players can enter another blocked area. Here, you can observe the buildings in Tokyo area up close.
Secondly, near a water tank in Taiwan Port, you can enter a small hidden area using the same method. You can even have some simple interactions with NPCs in the area.
Thirdly, the last location is at Tokyo Station. You need to find a friend and have them drive a large or heavy vehicle while you drive a mini-car.
Park the mini-car against a wall in Tokyo Station, then have the large vehicle crash into it from behind. With enough impact, mini-car will "crash through" the wall and enter the back of Tokyo Station.
Vehicle Bugs
Another bug involves various display errors and sound effects related to the appearance of Forza Horizon 6 Cars in the game.
BMW M5 (1995)
First to be mentioned is 1995 BMW M5, which has appeared in Forza Horizon series since Forza Horizon 2.
A player recently discovered a strange phenomenon: when you select certain default colors for this car, the lower lip of the vehicle inexplicably turns blue. In previous Forza Horizon titles, its default color was light gray.
While this issue may seem minor, it's a noticeable visual flaw for aesthetically pleasing car enthusiasts.
However, this minor flaw didn't hinder the car's skyrocketing value in the game. In FH2, it cost 14,000 Credits, in FH5 it became 25,000 Credits, and in FH6, you might need 48,000 Credits to acquire it.
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR
Other cars also had similar issues. Back in FH4, this car had a missing texture on the front bumpers.
In FH6, the problem became even more severe. Its mesh texture was ridiculously large, looking quite comical.
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI Tommi Makinen Edition
This special edition car, released to commemorate rally driver Tommi Makinen, had an even more ridiculous flaw. When some players installed Full Roll Cage on this car, they couldn't see Roll Cage model at all.
Interestingly, although Roll Cage wasn't displayed, you could see that A-pillar inside the car had been stripped of its trim, revealing the internal metal structure.
This was clearly due to a rendering failure in the game, but it created a unique and cool metallic visual effect.
Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4
Next, there's a strange issue with the car's sound. Some players discovered that this Lamborghini Aventador emits a very strange mechanical sound.
After analysis, this sound resembles the working sound of the original rear wing constantly raising and lowering while the car is in motion. However, the problem is that this car already has other body kits installed, so players shouldn't be able to hear this sound.
Players speculate that this is likely because the game's sound system incorrectly retained the audio triggering logic of the original rear wing, ignoring the fact that the player had replaced the body kit.
These are some of the interesting game glitches in Forza Horizon 6 that you can use to explore "other side" of game map or build an unusual metal car. If you're interested, go ahead and open the game and give it a try!
