The PS5 version is now set to dodge a collision with GTA 6, which seems to have its own track and street racing, and will reportedly release on January 26, 2027. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">In August, Tom Warren from The Verge said that Forza Horizon 6 wouldn&#8217;t hit PS5 this year. At the time, Playground released a statement insisting Forza Horizon 6 would. Playground has yet to issue a fresh comment following today&#8217;s report. <\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"slideshow-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-preview\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 slideshow-preview\">\n<h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-1085005187\" data-cy=\"slideshow-preview-title\">All Cars in Forza Horizon 6<\/h3>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-images-container\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 images-container\"><button type=\"button\" data-cy=\"hero-image\" aria-label=\"Open Slideshow\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 hero-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"presentation\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-2277167929 image aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-16-9 jsx-2605834259 jsx-2338608387 hover-opacity\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/imdbnews.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/forza-horizon-6-reportedly-coming-to-ps5-in-january-on-disc.gif\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Since Xbox CEO Asha Sharma took over from the retired Phil Spencer earlier this year, Microsoft&#8217;s gaming strategy has shifted to encompass limited Xbox console exclusives. Gears of War: E-Day, for example, will not release on PS5. Neither will inXile&#8217;s Clockwork Revolution, which was made an Xbox console exclusive.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Forza Horizon 6, however, has avoided a similar fate. Perhaps that&#8217;s no surprise, given Forza Horizon 5 reportedly sold over 5 million copies on PS5, generating more than $300 million in revenue. Surely Forza Horizon 6 will generate signifcant revenue on PS5 also.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">IGN\u2019s Forza Horizon 6 review returned a 10\/10. We called it \u201cthe best-looking and best-sounding game Playground has produced to date, set in the most wonderfully realised map it\u2019s ever crafted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">According to billbil-kun, a PS5 physical edition will land at the same time as the digital version. Earlier this year, Sony announced plans to phase out discs on PlayStation by 2028, sparking massive pushback and petitions with hundreds of thousands of signatories. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The report claims the price for Forza Horizon 6 on PS5 will align with the Xbox version, meaning it\u2019ll cost around $69.99. As a first-party game, it&#8217;s also available as part of Game Pass, although there are question marks over Microsoft&#8217;s subscription strategy and day one releases. In July, the former director of Forza Horizon traced a line from the failure of the &#8220;well-meaning&#8221; Game Pass to the current layoffs sweeping across Xbox.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Just this week, Playground issued a statement finally addressing its community after months of constructive feedback about Forza Horizon 6 was met with nothing but radio silence from the renowned British studio. A second team at Playground is also in the final stretch of development on the Fable reboot, which is due to be released on Xbox, PC, and PS5 on February 23, 2027.<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"poll-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"><\/section>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<section class=\"author-sign-off\" data-cy=\"author-sign-off\"><span class=\"stack jsx-59817748 jsx-1927875859\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"rounded jsx-444076027 jsx-1730475047 profile-thumb jsx-2141281959 aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-1-1\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Kirk McKeand Avatar\" class=\"progressive-image profile-thumb-img jsx-249361588 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/imdbnews.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/forza-horizon-6-reportedly-coming-to-ps5-in-january-on-disc.jpg\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"stack jsx-2509706801 jsx-3630940851\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"interface jsx-1132626198 sign-off-text\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Kirk McKeand is a Contributor on IGN News.
