Summary
Looking for the Shimanoyama Heat Mascots in Forza Horizon 6? These baseball-shaped collectibles are part of the Series 4 "Horizon Mascot Party" Autumn Festival Playlist. The Homerun Collectibles Challenge requires you to smash 15 of them at Horizon Stadium, rewarding you with 3 Festival Points and a Super Wheelspin. If you need extra funds for cars or upgrades, you can also buy Forza Horizon 6 Credits for the latest events.
Where Is Horizon Stadium?
The first step is finding Horizon Stadium, located on the western side of the Shimanoyama region, close to the coast. Once you reach the stadium, you won't need to search across the entire map. Most Shimanoyama Heat mascots are concentrated inside the stadium and around its entrances.
The collectibles are large, baseball-style mascots that are easy to spot once you're in the right area. Check the stadium field, stands, entrances, and surrounding roads. There are also several groups positioned just outside the stadium, so drive around the nearby area if you are still short of 15.
How to Complete the Homerun Challenge
Simply drive your car into the Shimanoyama Heat mascots to smash them. Keep an eye on the Festival Playlist counter to make sure each hit registers. Be careful not to confuse these baseball mascots with the curry-themed mascot that appears elsewhere around Shimanoyama.
If a mascot has already been destroyed by another player, its remaining pieces may not count when you drive over them. In that case, look for another intact mascot.
Fastest Method
There is also a convenient shortcut. Switch to Horizon Solo, smash a mascot, then use Rewind after the challenge counter updates. Community reports indicate that the mascot can respawn, allowing you to hit the same one repeatedly until you reach 15. This is much faster than searching for every collectible individually.
Final Tips
The Shimanoyama Heat challenge is straightforward once you know the location. Head directly to Horizon Stadium, search around the field and entrances, and smash 15 baseball mascots. If you want to finish it quickly, the Horizon Solo and Rewind method can save considerable time.
Completing Homerun is also worthwhile because its 3 Festival Points help you progress toward the seasonal rewards and Forza Horizon 6 Cars, including the 2024 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 and 2016 Abarth 695 Biposto.
