With the Xbox Developer_Direct ’26 in just a few hours, more evidence has emerged that Forza Horizon 6 will launch on May 19th. None other than Dealabs’ Billbil-kun has reported that the date, which leaked via an alleged pop-up in Forza Horizon 5, is apparently real.
The open-world racing sim will launch with three editions – Standard is the only one with a price, retailing for $69.99. There are also Deluxe and Premium Editions, with the latter providing early access on May 15th. Other benefits include a VIP subscription, the Car Pass, the Welcome Pack and the Time Attack Car Pack.
Other Car Packs will allegedly arrive post-launch, and a physical version of the Standard Edition is apparently on the cards for day one. If that wasn’t enough, pre-orders for the latter will seemingly start at 8 PM French time, which translates to 11 AM PST. Since it’s an hour after the Direct starts, it’s probably safe to assume that the showcase will last as long.
Forza Horizon 6 is available at launch on Xbox Series X/S and PC, with the PS5 version arriving sometime after. It was previously rumored to arrive in the first half of this year, and at this point, it may be true. Other titles slated to appear during the Direct include Fable and Beast of Reincarnation alongside a “secret” fourth game.
