Forza Horizon 6 players are thrilled about this mod, but there's a catch

It’s only been two days since the general global launch of Forza Horizon 6, and the game has smashed multiple records for Microsoft. The latest instalment in the long-running franchise is seeing massive concurrent player peaks with an active community around it. That includes the modding community, and among many interesting mods is one that makes the game even more fun.

The mod in question is Spotify Radio by BigJohn0. It’s exactly as it sounds, and those who use Spotify for their music can integrate it into Forza Horizon 6’s radio. It uses Spotify Connect to stream music through the Streamer Mode station. With the mod installed, Spotify interprets your PC as “FH6 Radio,” which sends music to the in-game Streamer Mode station.

What’s even cooler is that the game shows live titles and artist metadata on the HUD. On top of that, because it’s integrated into the game’s radio station, it behaves like a native radio station with volume controls, menu fades, and more. It should be noted that you do need Spotify Premium for this to work.

Notably, you can't download the mod via Nexus Mods as it has been quarantined on the platform since it uses a ‘.dll’ file that tweaks the game’s launch, which is how some malware attacks happen. The platform will review the file, and if it is deemed to be safe, the files will be available once again. If you can't wait, the creator has shared temporary download links via Discord.
