Contest and Gift List for FM6

Contests, Sweepstakes, and Gift Opportunities for Forza Motorsport 6

Typical prizes might be: the game, DLC, Xbox One console, merchandise, or in-game gifts. Most of the information here will pulled from official threads in the Community Events forum or News section of FM.net. See also my calendar of contests and FM6-related events and articles at bit.ly/ForzaCalendars.

Event types may be skill based or select winners at random, and eligibility may be restricted to certain states or countries. Deadlines may be local time or based on a time zone other than your own. I am only listing the opportunities here for quick reference; the responsibility is on the entrant to comply with and meet all eligibility and entry requirements.

How to retrieve in-game gifts
Gift cars and credits are sent via message to your in-game Message Center. Press the controller bumpers to navigate to the Gifts section, select a message, and Press A to Download the gift. Gift cars will be transferred to your My Cars roster and credits will be added to your total, and the message will disappear.
Lost/Erased Gifts

Forza Rewards Tiers/Points update

  • News - Forza
  • Tiers 8 and 9 have been added to the Forza Rewards program, and the point levels adjusted so that some players have automatically gained a tier. Tier 9 starts at 12,500 points. “Incidentally, no players will be able to reach Tier 9 until Forza Motorsport 6 launches.” Note that the 3,000 points shown for FM6 are not awarded for purchasing the game, they will be detailed at release.
  • Anyone Tier 2 or above will receive one or more gift cars to start the game. See the Loyalty Rewards announcement for the list.

Max,i have a question,does the FM6 game that comes with the limited edition console count as pre-ordered,i mean do you get the same benefits as just pre-ordering the game? I pre-ordered from the Microsoft store,thanks. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask but you seem to know everything Forza related and I can’ find an answer anywhere.

The Microsoft Store lists the Ten Year Anniversary Pack in the contents, and then below the contents: “Pre-order Forza Motorsport 6 and receive the 2015 Mustang GT as a gift.” Whether they’re including that with the console pre-order or advertising the game pre-order alone, users should confirm with the retailer to be sure.

Especially curious is that it doesn’t specify what game this gift is for. It’s not unheard of for Forza games to give you a car as a bonus for pre-ordering, though it’s usually for the last game in the series.

It’s almost certainly the Team Forza “Retailer Pre-Order Car” listed in the E3 features announcement while the Pre-Order announcement details the FH2 DLC bonuses for pre-ordering digital editions. See the DLC and Editions thread for details on pre-order bonuses.

Yeah,it makes me wonder,i may just order the ultimate edition and be done with it.

Yeah, the gifts for FM6 will show up when you start the game. So based on that quote, players with 300 cars in every eligible garage would receive a gift of 25 million credits plus another gift from Forza Rewards for September (based on Tier and the month’s reward, whatever that may be.) And these would be in addition to the car gifts.

Right now you can see the Car Collector gift amount you’ll receive next month by opening the Forza Hub. As you noted in the Rewards FAQ thread this count may not be reflected correctly at the moment.

Where is it at in the hub? I only see “waiting for you in FM6” lump sum values, in my case 7.2 million and 12 cars - both values that I know are less than what I should be getting. Is there somewhere specific I should be looking? Thanks for your response man, I appreciate it.
