\"Xbox<\/a><\/p>\n

While we wait for official confirmation at the Xbox Developer Direct Showcase<\/a> next week, it appears that Xbox might have just accidentally revealed Forza Horizon 6<\/a>‘s release date via an in-game Horizon 5 message.<\/p>\n

According to the pop-up that was shared by Xbox Infinite<\/a> on social media, Forza Horizon 6 has a release date of May 19th, 2026. The same message mentions that the Premium and Premium Upgrade editions will include multiple benefits such as VIP Membership, a Car Pass, two expansions and early access from May 15th.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at the image:<\/p>\n

If you can’t view the picture very well, the list of those benefits is as follows:<\/p>\n

“Pre-order now and get a pre-tuned and exclusive Ferrari J50 in Forza Horizon 6! Discover the breathtaking landscapes of Japan in over 500 real-world cars and become a racing Legend in Forza Horizon’s biggest open world driving adventure yet.”<\/p>\n

“Pre-order Forza Horizon 6 Premium Edition or get the Premium Upgrade featuring:”<\/p>\n

Early access – Play 4 days early starting May 15
\nVIP Membership
\nWelcome Pack
\nCar Pass
\nTime Attack Car Pack
\nItalian Passion Car Pack (coming post-launch)
\n2 Premium Expansions (coming post-launch)<\/p>\n

We’ve had a quick browse of FH5 and haven’t come across this pop-up for Forza Horizon 6 yet, so we won’t mark this as a confirmed date just yet. If real, we assume more people will be seeing it in the coming hours.<\/p>\n

It does probably make sense though, especially considering GTA 6<\/a> is releasing in November and Xbox will want to stay well away from that. Stay tuned \u2014 we’ll let you when anyone says anything official about this Horizon 6 release date.<\/p>\n

Happy with this as a potential release date for Forza Horizon 6? Tell us in the comments below.<\/p>\n
