One issue caused HDR skyboxes to flicker on PC and Xbox Series X|S under “certain framerate conditions.” Thankfully, the new hotfix update solves this issue.

In addition, the update fixes a soft lock that would happen to three cars if their manufacturer paints were changed and an issue with moving decals in the livery editor.

Forza Motorsport’s next major update is expected to arrive in April. Update 7 will add a new circuit to the roster after the Nurburgring Nordschleife was added in Update 5.
