If you explore the beautiful new landscapes and wonder how to discover Autumn in Forza Horizon 6, one of the trending games of these days, you are not alone. Different weather conditions and environments are core parts of the franchise. However, changing the weather on command is not entirely straightforward.
This guide provides you with everything you need to know about how to change seasons and also how to discover Autumn in Forza Horizon 6.

FH6 Discover Autumn
In the discovery locations of Forza Horizon 6 (FH6), there may be a blank space for Autumn or Winter. Do not be worried! The Discovery entries for Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter can only be unlocked while their respective seasons are active. Seasons rotate every Thursday, so you must log in during each seasonal period to obtain the corresponding entries.
Can You Manually Change the Season in Forza Horizon 6?
The short answer is no. It is not possible to manually change the season of the whole free-roam map at will.
Just like previous entries in the series, Forza Horizon 6 relies on a live-service global rotation. The seasons (and the Playlist Series) change automatically every 7 days (Thursday, 2:30 PM UTC). If you want to drive around the open-world map in Autumn or Winter, you simply have to wait for the weekly Festival change to roll in.
Workarounds: Forza Horizon 6 Discover Autumn
While you cannot force the open-world map into Autumn before the 7-day rotation, there are two distinct workarounds that allow you to race in Autumn immediately.
Discover Autumn FH6: Create a Custom Event (Event Lab)
If you want to play in a specific season right now, you can do so by creating a custom race. Here is how:
- Open your main menu and navigate to the Creative Hub / Event Lab.
- Choose to create your own custom event (or modify an existing race).
- Open the Event Settings.
- Scroll down to Season Selection and choose Autumn or any season you want.
Note: This will only change the season for the duration of that specific custom race. Once you finish the event and load back into the open world, the map will revert to the current weekly server season.
Join Online Spec Races
If you do not want to build a custom track, you can jump into multiplayer. By playing online games like Spec Races, you will find that the seasons and weather conditions are randomized for each event. This gives you a great chance of naturally getting Autumn tracks without having to wait for the weekly reset.
FAQ
How can I play FH6 in Autumn right now?
Two reliable workarounds: create a custom event in Event Lab and set the Season to Autumn, or join online Spec Race/multiplayer events where the event’s weather/season can differ from the open-world rotation.
When does the FH6 season rotate?
Seasons rotate weekly on the game’s scheduled reset (weekly Festival change), so you must play during the active week to see that season in free roam
