A Forza YouTuber has been banned from Forza Horizon 6 before the game’s even launched after they uploaded videos of leaked footage.
After more than five years of Forza Horizon 5, Forza Horizon 6 is soon to become the new obsession for racing fans from across the globe.
The new game is taking players to Japan, and is set to have the biggest map that the popular series has seen. As well as being able to race on the streets of Tokyo, there are going to be the signature mountain drift races you’ll have seen in Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift, as well as the classic Horizon events.
Forza Horizon 6 is not set to launch until May 15 – if you’ve bought the premium edition of the game anyway – but it has apparently leaked early.
Forza Horizon YouTuber banned after playing early
That has landed some players in hot water already, including YouTuber DVS Squad, who has received a ban for uploading footage of the game from the leaked version of things. He hadn’t blurred out his name in the 45-minute video he’d posted, making it easy for the devs to find his account.
The YouTuber posted their ban message on May 10, with the reason of cheating/unallowed modding being given to them. The suspension will last 69,895,509 hours, or until the 31st December, 9999. So, that means their account isn’t coming back anytime soon.
“Due to cheating/unallowed modding, you have been suspended,” it read. “This has to be a record of some kind. GG Playground Games,” the YouTuber added.

The YouTuber has more than 52,000 subscribers and has made plenty of Forza Horizon content in the past.

As noted, players who have pre-ordered the game will be able to access it from May 15, and won’t receive a ban like the YouTuber.
