The Forza Horizon 6 Festival Playlist Series 3, titled "Italian Exotics," has kicked off with a new treasure hunt for Week 1. Since Playground Games no longer marks the specific location of the cache on the World Map, finding the hidden chest can be a bit of a challenge. Here is exactly where you need to go to collect your reward.

How to Find the Italian Exotics Week 1 Treasure

  1. Head to the Irokawa Area: Open your map and set a waypoint for the Irokawa Quarter Mile drag strip or the HZN-VI Rocket landmark.
  2. Locate the Rocket: Once you arrive at the Irokawa Space Center, find the large HZN-VI Rocket that is ready for launch.
  3. Search Behind the Buildings: Drive toward the area between the rocket and the drag strip. You will find the treasure chest hidden behind some buildings and circular containers.

If you are having trouble spotting the chest, look for where other players are congregating; the high volume of drivers flocking to the location is usually a dead giveaway. If you arrive and don't see the chest immediately, wait a few seconds—it can sometimes take a moment to load into the game world.

How to Claim Your Reward

Once you locate the chest, simply drive your car into it to break it open. Upon destruction, the game will automatically award you 100,000 credits. In addition to the cash, you will earn two Festival Playlist points, which are essential for unlocking high-tier rewards this week, such as the 1984 De Tomaso Pantera GT5 and the 2004 Maserati MC12.
