Forza Horizon 6 was officially announced last September at the Tokyo Games Show, confirming that the next instalment will be set in one of the most requested locations: Japan. No new details or gameplay footage have been shown since the initial announcement trailer, but that’s set to change later this month.
Forza Horizon 6 is confirmed to be one of three games featured in Xbox’s Developer_Direct show on 22nd January, alongside Fable, which Playground Games is also helming, and Beast of Reincarnation. That’s just two weeks from now.
During the stream, Playground Games will provide a “deep dive” into the open-world racer with a first look at gameplay footage and “reveals of new features” showing “how Japan comes to life.”

Xbox’s Developer_Direct will stream on 22nd January at 6pm GMT / 10am PST / 1PM EST.
