The leak seems to have originated from PC games storefront Steam. Some users reported the leak on Reddit over the weekend before a playable build of Forza Horizon 6 was reportedly made available on piracy forums.

As per claims made online, the leak occurred when developer Playground Games pushed unencrypted pre-download data for the game on Steam. The leaked game files, which reportedly amounted to a 155GB build of the game, were soon spotted on SteamDB.

Several users have since posted screenshots and clips claimed to be from the leaked PC version of the game.

Playground Games and Microsoft have not commented on the leak yet.

Forza Horizon 6 is set to launch on PC and Xbox Series S/X on May 19, but users who have pre-ordered the Premium edition of the game will get early access starting later this week on May 15. On PC, the game will be available on Steam and the Xbox app on Windows. It will also be available day one on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. The racing title will launch on PS5 later this year.
