What Is Forza Horizon 6?
Forza Horizon 6 is the newest installment of Microsoft’s open-world racing game. You play as a tourist who joins the races as a novice and works the way up the racing ladder. It’s set in Japan, with a variety of biomes scattered around, from the skyscraper-dense, neon landscape of Tokyo to winding mountain roads and snowy vistas. It features over 550 real-world cars, which is the most in any Forza Horizon to date. That includes special Forza Edition cars fitted with extreme modifications, as well as rare Aftermarket Cars you can collect.
What About the PS5 Version?
Games that used to be Xbox exclusives are no longer Xbox exclusives in this brave new world we find ourselves in, which means Forza Horizon 6 is coming to PS5. Unfortunately, Microsoft hasn’t announced a release date for it. But with Forza Horizon 5’s excellent sales numbers on PS5, you can bet it will arrive on Sony’s console eventually.
