"textContent": "Forza Horizon 6 strips fast travel down to its simplest form yet. There are no boards to smash, no house to buy, and no credits to spend. Open the map, point at a road you've driven before, and press a button.\n\n🗺️\n\nQuick answer: Open the world map from the pause menu, hover the cursor over any road shown in white or red (not grey), and press X on Xbox, PC, or PlayStation controllers to teleport there for free.\n\nImage credit: __Xbox Game Studios (via YouTube/@Games & Apps Tutorials)__\n\n* * *\n\n### How fast travel works in Forza Horizon 6\n\nFast travel is unlocked from the moment you reach the open world. It costs nothing and doesn't require buying property or hunting collectibles. The only gate is exploration: you can only jump to roads, events, houses, festival sites, and other locations you've already physically visited.\n\nThe map uses colour to show what's available. Roads you've driven turn white or red. Roads you haven't touched stay grey, and the game won't let you fast travel onto them. Once you drive any stretch of grey road, it flips to a visitable colour on the next map check.\n\n* * *\n\n### Steps to fast travel\n\n**Step 1:** Pause the game and open the world map under the Campaign tab. The cursor will appear over your current position by default.\n\nPause the game and open the world map | Image credit: __Xbox Game Studios (via YouTube/@Games & Apps Tutorials)__\n\n**Step 2:** Move the cursor over a road, event icon, house, or festival site that's already been discovered. Look for white or red road colouring as confirmation the destination is valid.\n\n**Step 3:** Press X to trigger the fast travel prompt. The button is X on Xbox controllers, X on a keyboard, and Square on PlayStation pads.\n\n**Step 4:** Select Yes on the confirmation pop-up. A short loading screen plays, and your car appears at the chosen spot, ready to drive.\n\nSelect Yes on the confirmation pop-up | Image credit: __Xbox Game Studios (via YouTube/@Games & Apps Tutorials)__\n\n* * *\n\n### What you can fast travel to\n\nAny discovered point on the map is a valid destination, not just road segments. That includes event start lines, player houses, festival outposts, and other named locations that have been unlocked through play.\n\n* * *\n\n### Why fast travel might be greyed out\n\nIf the prompt doesn't appear when hovering over a spot, the road is still undiscovered. The fix is to drive there once, then return to the map. Fast travel is also disabled mid-event, so finish or quit a race before trying to jump elsewhere.\n\n💡\n\nTip: Early in a save, spend some time driving across regions you plan to revisit. Every new road you touch becomes a permanent shortcut on the map, and the network compounds quickly.\n\nImage credit: __Xbox Game Studios (via YouTube/@Games & Apps Tutorials)__\n\n* * *\n\n### What changed from Forza Horizon 5\n\nForza Horizon 5 locked fast travel behind a specific house purchase, charged credits per jump, and required players to smash 50 fast travel boards scattered across the map to bring the cost down to zero. Forza Horizon 6 drops all of that. The board collectibles are gone, no property is required, and there's no per-trip fee at any point.\n\nThe trade-off is the exploration requirement. Where the older system let you teleport anywhere once you'd paid the unlock and grinded boards, the new system rewards driving the map first and then opens up free movement permanently.",
