Forza Horizon 6 studio threatens ‘franchise-wide and hardware bans’ for anyone playing its pirated leaked build

Playground Games said the leaked PC build of Forza Horizon 6 was obtained illegally, not from a Steam preload mistake.

The studio warned that players using the pirated version could face bans across the Forza franchise or even hardware bans.

SteamDB said the files likely surfaced because someone with early access used a token dumper, rather than from SteamDB downloads or leaked keys.
