The bowieknife99 drivatar has become Forza Horizon 6 public enemy no. 1

In addition to being a critical and commercial success, Forza Horizon 6 has created a legend! For several days now, bowieknife99 has been setting the internet ablaze with his exploits in the game.

This bowieknife99 is what’s known as a Drivatar, a driver controlled by the console’s artificial intelligence that mimics the real-world behavior of actual players. In Forza Horizon, users can encounter these Drivatars in the open world and during races, and now, one of these virtual drivers has become famous.

Anyone can come across him under the username bowieknife99. His driving, which is extreme and aggressive to say the least, has shocked more than a few Forza Horizon 6 players, so much so that there's a video compilation documenting the Drivatar’s misdeeds.

Several official Xbox accounts, and those for the Rayman franchise and Pragmata, have also called out bowieknife99 on social media.
