An unencrypted build of Forza Horizon 6 appeared online several days before its scheduled release. Players accessed and cracked the game files, prompting immediate bans from the developers.

Many highlighted the risk of hardware bans issued by developers, while others shared gameplay footage or urged patience until the May 19 launch. Reactions ranged from curiosity about the content to frustration over potential lost sales and unfair advantages for pirates.
