The autumn season has arrived in Forza Horizon 6, bringing with it a fresh batch of challenges and collectibles. This week’s “Horizon Mascot Party” playlist features a particularly charming task: finding and, well, interacting with the adorable Shimanoyama Heat mascots. If you’re ready to put the pedal to the metal (and maybe feel a tiny bit bad about it), here’s your comprehensive guide to locating these lovable little baseballs.

Finding the Shimanoyama Heat
The Shimanoyama Heat are unique collectibles part of the Series 4 “Horizon Mascot Party” playlist. They can be found primarily inside and around the iconic Horizon Stadium, located on the western side of the Shimanoyama region, near the coast. Your mission? Run over all 15 of these mascots to complete the “Homerun” challenge.



Most of the mascots are conveniently clustered within the stadium itself, with one positioned at each of the stadium entrances. While spotting these is relatively easy, a few stragglers can be found in the surrounding areas. Here’s where you should focus your search:

It’s important to note that you should be looking specifically for the baseball-shaped mascots. Don’t confuse them with the region’s general mascot (a little curry friend), which can be found scattered throughout Shimanoyama. Also, remember that simply hitting the white sphere or other parts of a previously “hit” mascot won’t count towards your total. You can track your progress in the “Festival Playlist” menu.



While you’re already in the area, consider tackling the Edamame Time Attack Circuit, another challenge from the “Horizon Mascot Party” playlist. Or, if you’re feeling creative, explore some of the nearby photo spots to add to your “Photography” collection. Happy hunting!
