Development
Forza Horizon 6 is being developed by Playground Games with assistance from Turn 10 Studios. [1] Revealed during the 2025 Tokyo Game Show, it is also confirmed to be launched on Windows and Xbox Series X/S in 2026, [2] [3] with a PlayStation 5 version releasing afterwards. [4] Japan was chosen as the game's setting due to its popularity among fans, who frequently requested it. The team's prior experience developing the Hot Wheels expansion for Forza Horizon 5 also helped the team developing Tokyo's elevated highways. According to art director Don Arceta, the game's map is not a one-to-one recreation of Japan, much like with the maps of past entries' locations, as the team wanted to "capture the country's unique cultural essence" instead. The team travelled to Japan for location research and recruited Kyoko Yamashita as a cultural consultant for the project. [5]
Locations including Mount Fuji, Hokkaido and Tokyo have been confirmed for the game. [6] [7] Arceta stated that the game's map is the franchise's largest and described the Tokyo City area as the franchise's "most complex and intricate drivable space". Arceta also noted that Japan is a location "full of contrast", with urban areas in the game juxtaposed against mountainous roads and open fields. [8] Similar to Forza Horizon 4 and Forza Horizon 5, the game features a dynamic weather system that reflects seasonal changes. [9]
