Forza Horizon 6: two seasons before year's end and the first expansion in January

Playground Games has published a roadmap for Forza Horizon 6: it lays out what the studio will be working on until the end of 2026 and throughout the following year. The densest period for content is early 2027.

End of the year: two seasonal updates

The arcade racer will close out the outgoing year with a pair of major updates. The first is called Series 8 "Horizon Holidays", the second — Series 9 "Legendary Explorers". Both are due to launch before the new year arrives.

• Series 8: a winter track at the stadium, where Time Attack and Drift Attack events run side by side, and drifting gets gates of varying difficulty — narrow ones promise a bigger multiplier.
• Series 9: seven cars, five of which will be Festival Playlist rewards with an off-road theme, plus new permanent activities on Legend Island.

January and February: exotics, tuning and an expansion

Series 10 kicks off in January, dedicated to rare and upgraded cars (Exotics and Tuners). Alongside the season's events, the game will get another permanent radio station, and the pool of cars obtainable through activity will grow noticeably. At the end of February comes Series 11 — the developers haven't announced its theme yet.

The key event of the month is the release of the first major expansion. Playground Games isn't revealing exactly what it will include: the contents are promised to be shown soon. According to the game's official page, the expansion launches on January 26, and on January 26 Forza Horizon 6 makes its debut on PlayStation 5 — meaning the add-on and the console premiere fall in the same month.

The second half of 2027: only guideposts so far

Less is known about the later months. The plans include:

• a second story expansion — it's already in development;
• a major overhaul of the Festival Playlist;
• new tracks and gameplay mechanics.

The point of the playlist overhaul, according to Traxion, is to remove the "missed" content effect: after Series 11, reward cars are to be made permanently available. There are no exact dates for these changes.
