Forza Horizon 6
Forza win.
Playground Games is currently looking into a problem where "game save progress may be lost or reset" in Forza Horizon 6.
Addressing the issue on the website, the support staff advised players impacted by the bug to "immediately open a ticket on the website" so the team can attempt to restore their save profile by rolling progress "back to an earlier save."
"We highly advise that you submit your ticket the same day the issue occurs to increase the chances of recovery," the team cautioned. "In the meantime, do not start new play sessions or create new saves until Forza Support has reviewed your case."
Players on Xbox are also recommended to turn off Quick Resume, make sure they are online when "quitting the game," give their save time to sync before powering down their device, and avoid force quitting the game during save screens. Additionally, players should not power down their devices while playing, and if an "out of space" pop-up appears with a game crash, they should verify their storage and restart their console.
Due to the problem, Xbox has released a patch on PC and Steam, and advises playing only once version 37.114.10001.0 or higher is installed. Xbox players also got a system update over the weekend.
"As only some players will start to receive the update automatically today, we highly recommend following the steps outlined in this Xbox Support article to download the update manually to your console as soon as possible," the team added.
Unfortunately, some players are still experiencing data loss even after installing the new patch.
"Happened to me as well with 220 hours…" wrote one player. "Not much you can do I think, except contact support and wait… although I’ve been waiting 4 days with nothing. Just started playing on a new fresh account as they say not to start a new save on the corrupted account."
As we recently reported, Forza Horizon 6 is a great experience, but a recurring 'drivatar' AI racer is making things tougher for many drivers. Their nickname is bowieknife99, and they've created enough chaos to become a sort of urban legend. Now, the myth has gone viral.
