On Monday, Forza Horizon 6 studio Playground Games laid down the law and banned a number of players who allegedly leaked footage of the racing game a week before its official launch. The consequence itself wasn’t surprising — but the severity of it was. Leakers were hit with a ban set to last 7,973 years across all Forza games. Yet on that same day, the most prominent Forza Horizon 6 leaker uploaded more footage of himself driving around in a game he wasn’t supposed to be able to play.
