Any remaining currency in the In-Game Store can be used on the discounted prices on in-game items.

"We’re proud and grateful for the community of players we were able to build with Forza Street, and we want to use what we learned on building new and exciting Forza products," said the Forza support team in an FAQ on the closure.

The support team added, "Forza Street is only playable until Spring 2022. After its closure, the game and its features will no longer be accessible. Players who still have the game installed after this date will see an information screen after starting up the game and will be unable to play."
