May 14, 2026Forza Horizon 6 doesn’t reinvent the formula, but instead takes everything the series has refined over the years and pushes it to an absurdly high new level with a phenomenal Japanese setting, stunning next-gen presentation, and a practically endless amount of content and activities.

May 18, 2026Forza Horizon 6 is the best open-world racing game ever made, and it isn't particularly close. Playground Games took a twelve-year formula into the most demanding setting it has occupied, delivered an individualized physics model across 550+ cars that redefines what accessible driving simulation can feel like, and built a fictionalized Japan whose scale and visual fidelity earn every superlative being attached to them.

Jun 5, 2026For new players, Forza Horizon 6 is probably one of the best places to start in the series. For veteran players, however, things are much less enthralling. The formula hasn’t changed, the festival-like presentation has deteriorated, progression remains the same and Japanese culture sometimes feels more like window dressing than the game’s foundation. If you were expecting a revolution, Forza Horizon 6 will disappoint.
