Forza Horizon Spotify Radio is a mod for the racing games Forza Horizon 5 and Forza Horizon 6 on Windows. It replaces the game's built-in radio system with a custom in-game station powered by your own Spotify account, so you can listen to your personal playlists and favorite tracks while driving instead of the game's default music. The mod uses Spotify Connect, a feature that lets you control playback from a phone, another computer, or a browser instead of switching away from the game. It also provides a local web dashboard, opened in a regular browser, for managing the mod's settings. There is built-in support for Forza Horizon's Streamer Mode, a setting that silences licensed music so recorded or live-streamed gameplay does not get flagged for copyright. Installation on Windows involves downloading a zip file, running the installer as an administrator, enabling Streamer Mode inside the game, and then connecting a Spotify Premium account through the in-game radio menu. The README is explicit that a Spotify Premium subscription is required and the free tier will not work. It also includes a troubleshooting table covering issues like the mod failing to load, Spotify not connecting, missing audio, and the dashboard not opening, mostly solved by running as administrator, checking antivirus settings, or restarting the relevant app. The README is brief and the project's own code is listed as C++. It states plainly that the mod is for educational and personal use, that players use it at their own risk regarding bans or terms-of-service issues, and that a real, legitimate copy of the game is required. It is released under the MIT license and described as optimized for Windows 11.
