Players only need to unlock their first wristband to access the Festival Playlist, something that should take roughly an hour for most players based on early gameplay progression.

With Series 1 now set to roll out across Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring, Playground Games appears to be leaning heavily into Japanese car culture early in Horizon 6’s lifecycle while also expanding how players earn exclusive vehicles through the evolving Festival Playlist system.
