Forza Horizon 6 Guide: All Collectible Locations for Mascots and Bonus Boards

Quick Answer: You need to track down and destroy exactly 200 Regional Mascots and 200 Bonus Boards scattered across Japan to finish your collection. You can either hunt them manually using community maps or buy the in-game Treasure Map DLC to reveal all 400 icons instantly.

Playground Games did not hold back when packing the Japanese landscape with things to smash. From the neon streets of Tokyo to the dirt trails winding through the mountains, there are exactly 400 collectibles waiting for your front bumper.

The best part is that nothing is time-gated or locked behind story progression. The second you drop into the open world, every single item is out there waiting for you. Here is exactly how to find them, track your progress, and secure those completionist achievements.

The Two Types of Collectibles in Japan

The map is loaded with hundreds of purple icons, but they are split into two very distinct categories. Knowing what you are looking for before you arrive at the location saves you from driving in circles looking for the wrong object.

You do not need a specific vehicle class or a heavy off-roader to break these. A hypercar shatters a wooden board just as well as a rally truck. Just make contact at speed, and the item is yours.

Revealing the Map: Paid vs. Free Methods

Unless you want to drive blindly down every single dirt road in the country, you need a strategy to reveal these locations. The game only populates the purple icons on your minimap when you are physically close to the item.

You have two main paths to uncover the full board:

1. The Premium Shortcut: You can buy the in-game Treasure Map for a few bucks from the pause menu. This instantly uncovers every single Mascot, Bonus Board, Barn Find, and Treasure Car location on your world map.
2. The Free Grind: The Forza community is incredibly fast at documenting the map. You can easily pull up a free community-made interactive map on a second monitor and tick off the locations manually.

If you are hunting these down specifically to bump up your Gamerscore, make sure to read our Forza Horizon 6 guide covering all achievements and trophies so you know exactly what else to look for while you are out exploring.

Fastest Ways to Navigate to Collectibles

Driving to 400 different spots manually will burn you out quickly. Thankfully, the game gives you two massive quality-of-life features to speed up the process.

• Fast Travel: Once you unlock the ability, you can hover over any discovered collectible icon on the map and teleport directly to it.
• Autodrive: If you do not want to fast travel but are tired of steering, press Down and Left on your D-pad. The Autodrive feature takes over the wheel and navigates your car to the waypoint for you.

Achievements Tied to Your Destruction

There are no partial rewards for getting halfway there. You need to clear the entire board to pop the related trophies. Because the progress is tracked separately, you can focus on knocking out all the boards before you even touch a mascot.

• Gotta Smash ‘Em All: Awarded for destroying all 200 Regional Mascots.
• A Few Splinters Is Nothing!: Awarded for shattering all 200 Bonus Boards.

Pro Tips for Clearing the Map Efficiently

Do not just drive aimlessly. A little bit of organization will cut hours off your completion time.

• Use the Map Filters: Open your main map and turn off every icon except for Collectibles. Removing race events, speed traps, and Drivatars stops your screen from looking like a cluttered mess.
• Check for Gray Icons: Once you smash an item, its map icon turns gray. If you see a bright purple icon, you still need to hit it.
• Stick to One Region: Pick a section of the map, like the Ohtani region, and wipe it clean before moving on. Zigzagging across the entire country is a massive waste of time.
• Prioritize Top Speed: Take out your fastest road car. Most of the travel time involves zooming down highways between collectible clusters, so raw speed beats off-road handling for this grind.
