Forza Horizon 6 Achievements Guide: All 57 Ranked Hardest to Easiest (Only 1.8% Have Maxed Out)

Quick answer: Forza Horizon 6 has 57 achievements worth 1,000 Gamerscore, identical on Xbox and Steam, and none of them are hidden. The hardest by far is Maxed Out (reach Horizon Play level 100), which only 1.8% of Steam players have unlocked. Next come The Boss (max out the RakuRaku Express delivery job, 3.5%) and All Eyes On You (park the 2025 GR GT Prototype at a Car Meet, 7.3%). TrueAchievements estimates 80–100 hours for the full 1,000G, though Horizon Play level 100 is the big variable and can push it well past that. Most of that time goes on Horizon Play levels, the delivery job and the 400 collectibles. The race wins barely register.

A post on r/ForzaHorizon this week shows a player down to their last three achievements, and the replies name the usual leftovers: max job level and Horizon Play level 100. The Steam data backs that up. Forza Horizon 6's list looks friendly on paper (no hidden achievements, no difficulty requirement, nothing tied to a one-off launch event), but a handful of grind-heavy entries are what stand between most players and 1,000G.

This guide ranks all 57 achievements by how many players actually own them, using live global unlock percentages from Steam (pulled October 20, 2026). It then covers each of the hard ones in detail and finishes with a roadmap that stacks them efficiently. Every achievement name and Gamerscore value is checked against the official forza.net achievements list.

How many achievements are in Forza Horizon 6?

Forza Horizon 6 has 57 achievements worth exactly 1,000 Gamerscore. Playground Games published the full list before launch:

"Forza Horizon 6 launches with 57 achievements, worth a total of 1,000 Gamerscore. These achievements are obtainable on the Xbox and Steam versions of the game." — forza.net

The key facts:

  • 57 achievements / 1,000G. The Steam listing still shows exactly 57 as of October 2026, so none have been added post-launch.
  • No hidden achievements. Every requirement is visible from day one.
  • Big-ticket values: Horizon Legend (Gold Wristband), Master Explorer (Gold Stamp) and The Horizon Cartographer (reveal the whole map) are worth 50G each. Maxed Out, Historic Effort, Played-List, Racing Aficionado and both 200-collectible achievements are worth 30G each.
  • Time to 100%: TrueAchievements puts the full list at roughly 80–100 hours on Xbox Series X and Series S. Horizon Play level 100 is the swing factor in that number.
  • Two parallel progress tracks carry 300G between them. The seven Wristbands (Yellow → Green → Blue → Pink → Orange → Purple → Gold) and the seven Collection Journal Stamps are each worth 150G.

The official achievement names also settle a long-running question: the seven Festival Wristbands are, in order, Yellow, Green, Blue, Pink, Orange, Purple and Gold. For what each tier unlocks, see our Forza Horizon 6 Gold Wristband guide.

What are the rarest Forza Horizon 6 achievements?

The rarest Forza Horizon 6 achievements are Maxed Out (1.8%), The Boss (3.5%), All Eyes On You (7.3%) and Historic Effort (7.4%), based on Steam's global unlock data. Only four achievements sit below 10%, and three of those four come down to time or knowing a single trick, not to driving skill.

The 12 rarest Forza Horizon 6 achievements ranked by Steam global unlock percentage

A few things jump out from the data:

  • Only 30.5% of players have the Gold Wristband (Horizon Legend), even though it's the "story ending" of the Festival.
  • Racing Aficionado (win 57 Festival races) sits at 27.0%, close to Horizon Legend. Racing skill is not what's holding people back.
  • The open-world clean-up is the real wall. Bonus Boards (12.1%), Mascots (18.0%), the full map reveal (18.7%) and the Gold Stamp (23.5%) are all checklist achievements. None of them is hard, and together they take hours.
  • Social achievements are rarer than they should be. What Are You Doing In My Estate? (13.8%) only asks you to visit someone else's Estate once. It's online-only and tucked away in the Creative Hub, which likely explains the low rate.

How do you unlock Maxed Out (Horizon Play level 100)?

Maxed Out asks you to earn 100 levels in Horizon Play, FH6's unified online hub. Only 1.8% of Steam players have it, which makes it the rarest achievement in the game. Its little brother Ready to Rumble (10 levels) is at 14.7%, so most players never touch online play seriously.

Horizon Play XP comes from playing its modes: Horizon Racing, Spec Racing, Touge Showdown, Horizon Drift, The Eliminator, Hide & Seek and the custom lobbies. How to make level 100 manageable:

  • Play the mode you're best at. XP scales with participation and results, so a mode where you place well levels you faster than one you quit early.
  • Stack it with other achievements. One Spec Racing race also pops Even Playing Field, and Horizon Play counts toward Wristband progress early on.
  • Treat it as a background goal. Spread it over weeks of short online sessions instead of grinding it in one sitting.
  • The grind was cut in June. The mid-June 2026 update reduced the XP needed for the levels past 25, so if you gave up on it at launch, it's far more reachable now.
  • The cap has moved, the achievement hasn't. The Series 6 "Horizon Meets" update added 200 more Horizon Play levels and 20 badges, but the achievement still triggers at 100.

For mode-by-mode tips, see our Forza Horizon 6 Horizon Play guide.

How do you get The Boss achievement in Forza Horizon 6?

The Boss asks for "the maximum Promotion in a Job." In practice that means the RakuRaku Express food-delivery job in Tokyo, where you drive a supplied kei truck through timed delivery shifts. Max promotion is job level 9. That is why only 3.5% of players have it: many reach the first few promotions, decide the job is a chore and never come back.

How to get through it without burning out:

  • Do a few shifts between races. A tip that keeps coming up in the community: don't grind nine levels in one go. Mix in a couple of RakuRaku runs every few Festival races.
  • Know your route before the timer starts. Some shifts give you a slow vehicle and two or three drops in a tight window, so cutting through parks and alleys matters more than top speed.
  • Match the objective. Some deliveries are pure time runs, others score drifting or Skill chains, so read the brief before you set off.
  • First shift = Working 9 to 5. That 10G achievement (58.5% unlock) comes for free on the way.

How do you get the GR GT Prototype for All Eyes On You?

All Eyes On You only asks you to park the 2025 GR GT Prototype at a Car Meet, yet just 7.3% of players have it. The reason is that people can't find the car. You drive the GR GT Prototype (one of FH6's two cover cars) in the intro, but in the Autoshow it's filed under the "GR" manufacturer, not Toyota, so searching "Toyota" shows nothing.

  • Open the Autoshow and filter by manufacturer → GR.
  • Buy the 2025 GR GT Prototype (guides report around 250,000 CR; check the in-game price).
  • Drive it to any Car Meet. The Horizon Festival site in Ohtani is the easiest because a fast-travel point sits right next to it.
  • Pull into a parking bay and press the on-screen prompt. A short parking scene plays and the achievement unlocks.

While you're at the meet, park at two more Car Meets in any car to clear Parking All Over The World (16.3%).

Historic Effort, Played-List and the Festival Playlist achievements

Two 30G achievements live inside the weekly Festival Playlist:

  • Historic Effort (7.4%): earn a Series History Reward. These rewards unlock from your lifetime Playlist points across every Series you've played. The first tier, a 1972 Mazda Cosmo 110S Series II, arrives at 500 lifetime points. Because the counter never resets, this is a "play the Playlist regularly" achievement, not a skill check. At typical weekly point totals, 500 takes roughly 10–12 weeks of real time, so start the Playlist as soon as you have the Yellow Wristband.
  • Played-List (13.2%): earn all Playlist points for a single season (one week). The usual blockers are The Trial (a team race against Unbeatable Drivatars, gated behind the Gold Wristband) and a few fiddly photo or Treasure Hunt challenges. Pick a week with an easy Trial restriction and clear everything else on day one.

The current Series is Series 6 "Horizon Meets" (October 8 – November 5, 2026). Our Series 6 reward cars guide lists every point threshold.

Story, PR Stunt and region achievements

  • Storyteller (11.5%): 81 Stars from Stories means a perfect 3-star rating on every Story chapter. Replay any chapter you finished on one or two stars. Dedicated Tourist (3 stars on any Day Trip chapter) comes along the way.
  • Crowd Pleaser (10.6%): 36 Stars from PR Stunts in the Ohtani region specifically, which means three stars on 12 of Ohtani's 13 PR Stunts. Some only appear once you reach the Purple Wristband, so you can't finish this early. Bring an upgraded S1 car for speed stunts and a dedicated drift build for Drift Zones. See our Speed Traps guide and Drift Zones guide.
  • To The Moon (34.5%): one star at the Irokawa Launch Danger Sign, near the Irokawa Space Centre in the south-west of the map. The ramp only appears after the Purple Wristband.
  • Tokyo Resident (54.6%): complete 33 activities in the Tokyo City region.
  • Racking Up The Miles (41.2%): discover all 10 regions. Our Forza Horizon 6 map guide shows where each one starts.

Collectible achievements: mascots, boards, Treasure Cars and the map

The two smash achievements need 200 Regional Mascots and 200 Bonus Boards, 400 smashables in total, each tracked separately (Fast Travel Boards don't count toward either).

  • Gotta Smash 'Em All (18.0%): smash all 200 Regional Mascots. They pay 5,000 CR each (1M CR for all 200), so this run also funds your garage.
  • A Few Splinters Is Nothing! (12.1%): smash all 200 Bonus Boards. Rooftop and mountain boards are the last ones everybody misses. Leave the snowy Sotoyama boards until you have a fast AWD car.
  • The Horizon Cartographer (18.7%, 50G): reveal the entire map. Drive every road, not just the main ones. This pairs naturally with the board and mascot sweep.
  • Treasure Hunter (24.7%): discover and claim 9 Treasure Cars by solving photo clues. Series 6 added a new one, the 1970 Citroën 2CV. See our rare cars guide for the clues.
  • Master Explorer (23.5%, 50G): the Gold Stamp at the top of the Discover Japan pathway. It comes from exploring, smashing mascots, uncovering regions and buying houses. Our Barn Finds & Discover Japan guide covers the stamp ladder.

Cars racing between towering snow walls in Forza Horizon 6

Car, garage and social achievements

  • Collector (44.8%): own 100 different cars. The fastest routes are cheap Autoshow buys, Wheelspins and the Auction House. Our how to unlock all cars guide covers every route.
  • Show Me What You've Got! (21.9%): put 3 different cars on display in your garage at the same time. You need a home with three display slots. The Tokyo House (3M CR, free with VIP) is the usual pick: Customise Garage → Display Cars → fill all three. Our houses guide covers the other homes.
  • Blank Slate (64.5%): buy the Yashiki Player House, the cheapest house in the game at around 10,000 CR.
  • What Are You Doing In My Estate? (13.8%): visit another player's Estate. Go to Creative Hub → Estates, pick any shared Estate and choose Visit. You don't need your own Estate first.
  • A Whole New World (76.7%): drive any R-class car. Track Day (25.7%): set a Time Attack lap in any Track Toy. See our Time Attack circuits guide.
  • Bargain Hunt / First Love: buy an Aftermarket car and an Autoshow car.

Is there a Hide & Seek achievement in Forza Horizon 6?

No. A recurring question on Reddit is how to unlock "Catching a Brake / Catching a Break" in FH6, and the answer is that it isn't on Forza Horizon 6's list. Catching a Break (hit 20 Seekers with Chase Breaker in one Hide & Seek game) is a Forza Horizon 5 achievement added in a later FH5 update. FH6's 57 achievements include no Hide & Seek requirement, so you can skip the five-friend boosting sessions.

What's the fastest roadmap to 1,000 Gamerscore?

The most efficient order, built around stacking:

  • Play the campaign naturally to the Purple Wristband. The easy race, Touge, Drag Meet, Horizon Rush and Showcase achievements (Meching My Way Downtown, Ascending New Heights) pop along the way.
  • Buy the GR GT Prototype early and park it at a Car Meet, then visit two more meets. Two "rare" achievements are done in one trip once you've found three Car Meets.
  • Start RakuRaku Express shifts early and do a couple between race sessions until job level 9.
  • Push to the Gold Wristband, playing the Festival Playlist every week from the Yellow Wristband onward. Historic Effort needs about three months of points, Played-List follows, and The Trial opens up at Gold.
  • Do the open-world sweep in one long session: map reveal, 200 boards, 200 mascots, Ohtani PR stunts, Treasure Cars and the Gold Stamp.
  • Three-star the Stories for Storyteller.
  • Leave Horizon Play level 100 running in the background throughout. It's the one you can't rush.
