The seventh series of City Life has launched in Forza Horizon 6: players will get two permanent tracks in Tokyo, an IKEA decoration set of 35 items and new cars. The main rewards of the playlist are the compact 2016 Honda S660 Alpha and the classic N600.

Motorsport Games has introduced automatic request rate limiting and IP blocking for requests it considers outside normal use.

Le Mans Ultimate and the European Le Mans Series have determined the winner of the livery contest: the jury selected the work of David Gibbons (nickname SimRacing Designs) from a shortlist of 20 entries. The orange-blue-white livery of the Oreca 07 will appear in the game under the ELMS 26 Team entry, and it can already be downloaded for free via the Livery Hub.
