FH6 Season Structure Guide
Forza Horizon 6 brings back dynamic seasons from FH4 — but with a twist. Unlike FH4's global season, FH6 has regional seasons that affect different parts of Japan differently.

| Summer | June-August | Tropical heat in Okinawa, monsoon rains |
| Autumn | September-November | Fall colors in Kyoto/Fuji area, clear skies |
| Winter | December-February | Heavy snow in Hokkaido, light snow in mainland |
