Forza Horizon 6 took center stage during Xbox Developer Direct, sparking conversations among gamers for a unique reason. Playground Games captivated fans at the gaming showcase by unveiling not only the new Fable but also the latest installment in their renowned racing series.
The visuals of racing through Japan are exceptionally striking, with the sound of engines being incredibly lifelike. However, this heightened realism comes with a price tag. Non-Xbox Game Pass members can purchase the Standard Edition for £59.99, while the Deluxe Edition, featuring a Car Pass and Welcome Pack, is priced at £89.99.
The most surprising offering is the Premium Edition at a hefty £109.99, providing players with VIP membership, additional car packs, access to two major expansions, and early access for four days. Despite the premium cost, future content is not guaranteed, as mentioned in the fine print on Steam.
Although this pricing structure is not new for Forza games, the steep costs may feel more burdensome this time around. Forza Horizon 6 immerses players in a meticulously recreated Japan with stunning scenery and an extensive lineup of cars for racing enthusiasts. If intrigued, pre-orders are open now, with the game scheduled for release on Xbox Series X/S and PC on May 19, 2026.
