In Forza Horizon 6,
smashing all 250 Bonus Boards is a huge XP and fast travel boost, but finding them can be tricky. Here’s a complete guide to help you systematically locate every board, understand their rewards, and make the hunt efficient.
1. Types of Bonus Boards
The game has two main types of Bonus Boards:
XP Boards (200 total): Each gives between 1,000–5,000 XP, helping you level up your driver quickly.
Fast Travel Boards (50 total): Each board reduces the cost of fast travel by 2%. Smash all 50, and fast travel becomes completely free.
2. Regional Search Tips
Different terrains hide boards in unique spots. Here’s how to approach each:
Urban Neon Districts: Look in alleyways, on top of multi-story parking garages, and behind arcades or small buildings.
Mountain Passes & Shrines: Check switchback overlooks, under torii gates, and hidden wooden bridges.
Rural Rice Paddies: Inspect agricultural sheds, under highway support pillars, and narrow irrigation channels.
Coastal Harbors: Top of shipping containers, crane platforms, and breakwater ends are common hiding spots.
3. Revealing Bonus Board Locations
To make hunting easier:
Treasure Map DLC: Purchase it to reveal every board icon on the world map instantly.
Map Filters: On the map screen, open the filter menu, uncheck “All,” and check only “Bonus Boards.”
Drone Mode: Open the Creative menu, launch a Drone, and fly above the terrain. Boards spotted by the drone are permanently marked on your map.
4. Roof and Elevated Board Strategy
Boards on rooftops or high ledges can be tough:
Locate a Launch Point: Hillsides, cliff edges, and danger sign ramps can give you a clean jump to reach elevated boards.
Use Rewind: Activate the Rewind setting to retry jumps instantly if you miss.
Approach Angles: Check from a distance—sometimes the correct ramp is on the far side of the building.
5. General Hunting Tips
Systematic Sweep: Focus on one region at a time. Sweep from low to high altitude or from west to east to avoid missing hidden boards.
Combine with Fast Travel: Smash boards as you explore, so you reduce travel costs while leveling XP.
Check Vertical Spaces: Many boards are tucked in places players rarely look—roof edges, under bridges, and behind objects.
By combining regional strategies, map filters, and Drone Mode, you can efficiently locate all 250 Bonus Boards in Forza Horizon 6. XP boards boost your driver rank, while fast travel boards save credits—especially useful in the huge open world of Japan.
