A preorder pop-up in Forza Horizon 5 may have disclosed a May release date for Forza Horizon 6. This information was revealed when Xbox user XBOXF10 shared screenshots showing a four-day early access starting on 2026-05-15, suggesting a full release on 2026-05-19. The pop-up also offered a Ferrari J50 for preordering, promoting Japan's landscapes and over 550 cars.
Details of the Preorder Pop-Up
The pop-up indicated that the Premium Edition, available from 2026-05-15, includes several benefits: VIP membership, a Welcome Pack, and two post-launch expansions. The game is described as featuring the series' largest open-world setting in Japan. The pop-up has since vanished, leaving the May dates unverified, as reports from PC Gamer and others could not replicate it.
Anticipated Announcements
The official confirmation regarding Forza Horizon 6 is expected during the Xbox Direct showcase set for 2026-01-22. Beyond Forza, the event will feature other titles like Fable and Beast of Reincarnation. Until then, the potential May launch remains speculative, with the gaming community eagerly awaiting updates.
