How to earn a Link Skill in Forza Horizon 6

Forza Horizon 6 Link Skills: A Renault racing towards the camera in a snowy, mountainous region.

There are a few pesky challenges in Forza Horizon 6's Series 1 update, and Link Skiller isn't going to be too popular. Why? Because you need to perform Link Skills, and that requires you to work with other players.

The good news is that it's actually easy enough to do without friends once you know what you need to do. I'll explain below how you can get Link Skills without having to go too far out of your way to collaborate with other racers.

How to earn Link Skills in Forza Horizon 6

You can earn Link Skills by performing the same action as another player at the same time, while in close proximity to each other. This can include things like drifting, driving fast, or breaking objects—anything that triggers the score prompt at the top of your screen. This sounds scary, but you don't need to be in a Convoy with other players or playing with friends.

My advice is to do one of the following activities:

  • Join a Stunt Party since you'll be matched into minigames with other players, which often involve applicable Link Skills. For example, one Stunt Party task is to break objects, so all you need to do is complete the objective near at least one other player.
  • Join Horizon Play races , a three-race multiplayer playlist that you can access either by clicking on the challenge or heading to the 'Online' tab of the pause menu. Here you'll easily get Link Skills for things like high speed and drifting.

It's easy enough to rack up Link Skills in these two modes, and you only need to score one to complete the Link Skiller daily challenge. Of course, if you have a friend, then you can just team up and coordinate whatever action you'd like to perform together.

Complete the Link Skiller daily challenge, and you'll be rewarded with one Festival Playlist point and 5,000 Credits. It's not much, but it's not like it requires too much work once you've got your head around it.
