The Forza Forum was a comprehensive forum for the Forza series that operated for nearly 20 years. It served as a platform for users to interact with each other, as well as a place for users and developers to communicate.
On May 8, 2026, it was announced that this forum would soon be closed.
According to community manager T10ManteoMax, bug reports and suggestions from users will be moved to the Forza Feedback Portal, while the Forza Steam forums and official Forza Discord channel will continue to be managed as places for community members to chat and exchange gameplay tips and experiences.
T10ManteoMax stated that they have no plans to archive the current forum, and urged users to archive past posts and game photos themselves, as they will no longer be accessible.
This decision has been met with many expressions of regret at the closure of the long-running forum. On the other hand, some have questioned the shift to Discord, a chat tool that is not as searchable as internet forums. One user pointed out, 'Discord is terrible. It doesn't even come close toreplicating the ease of use of traditional forum sites. Beginners keep posting the same basic questions over and over again like spam.'
The Forza Feedback Portal will be provided as a place where you can easily perform all kinds of actions, such as bug reporting, making suggestions, and searching and voting on existing topics categorized by category and tags. You will need to create a new account with Atlassian to use it.
Pages for ' Forza Motorsport ' and ' Forza Horizon 5 ' are already open, as is the 'Suggestions' section for the upcoming ' Forza Horizon 6 '. The 'Bug Report' section for Forza Horizon 6 is scheduled to be available in conjunction with the early access release on May 15, 2026.
Please note that the official Japanese Forza Horizon account is encouraging users to post in English rather than Japanese at the time of the announcement.
Currently, we request that all suggestions and reports be submitted in English.

T10ManteoMax stated, 'Closing the Forza forums was not an easy decision for our team. The continued growth of the Forza series and the increasing participation of the community across more platforms than ever before have significantly changed how we interact with players in recent years. The Forza team checks your content and reads your comments every day, everywhere from the official Forza channels to Reddit. After 20 years, there are more opportunities than ever to connect with the development team and the Forza community. We are grateful to everyone who has contributed to our shared passion over the years. We look forward to seeing you on Forza-related channels in the future.'
