All Forza Horizon 6 Consoles & Platforms, Explained

by

Forza Horizon 6 is set in Japan and blends classic gameplay with modern accessibility features. Let’s take a look at which gaming consoles will be able to play it.

Greetings, Horizon fans! Playground Games is always working on new projects, but they consistently return to the Horizon series. The reveal of Forza Horizon 6 at Tokyo Game Show felt natural, given the game’s location.

Let’s begin preparing for the game’s official launch by looking at which consoles and platforms it will be available on.

Will Forza Horizon 6 Be On PlayStation? PS4 & PS5 Status, Explained

Forza Horizon 6 is coming to PlayStation 5, but it won’t be available on PlayStation 4.

Forza Horizon 6 on PlayStation has a couple of key points. Firstly, it isn’t being released on older PlayStation consoles, which many anticipated. Secondly, while it will eventually be available on PS5, it won’t launch on PlayStation at the same time as other platforms.

Okay, so Forza Horizon 5 finally made it to PlayStation, but only on PS5. Honestly, it makes sense – my PS4 just wouldn’t be able to handle how massive and detailed FH5 is. And with FH6 probably being even bigger and better, there was no way they were going to bother porting it to the older console. It just wouldn’t run well!

Good news for PlayStation 5 fans: Forza Horizon 6 is officially confirmed to be coming to the console, though the exact release date is still some time away.

Will Forza Horizon 6 Be On Xbox? Xbox One Status, Explained

It’s a given that Forza Horizon 6 will be on Xbox, but this installment is exclusively for Xbox Series X|S – there won’t be a version for the older Xbox One consoles.

Forza Horizon 5 is likely to be the last Forza game released on Xbox One. Microsoft is now focusing on developing Forza Horizon 6 exclusively for Xbox Series X|S. Forza Horizon 6 will be available on day one for those with the newer consoles, and pre-orders are open now. Unfortunately, Xbox One players will need to upgrade to an Xbox Series X|S to play the new game.

Will Forza Horizon 6 Be On PC?

There will also be a Forza Horizon 6 PC release alongside the Xbox Series X|S launch.

PC gamers generally have it best, though performance can sometimes be a problem. Those who purchase Forza Horizon 6 can play on PC right away, provided their computer meets the game’s high system requirements.

Will Forza Horizon 6 Be On Nintendo? Switch & Switch 2 Status, Explained

While other gaming platforms might consider a Forza Horizon 6 release, it won’t be happening on the Nintendo Switch or its successor, the Switch 2.

The long-standing rivalry between PlayStation and Xbox has largely faded. While the “console wars” aren’t really happening anymore, Nintendo now stands apart from the competition. They’re incredibly successful and continue to make a lot of money each year. There’s no incentive for Nintendo to release its popular franchises like Mario and Zelda on other platforms unless the company faces a major, unexpected downturn.

While many third-party games are on the Switch 2, you won’t find Forza Horizon 6 making the drive.

What are your thoughts on the platforms Forza Horizon 6 is available on? Are you excited about the upcoming PlayStation 5 version? Also, what do you think about the fact that the game is no longer being updated for the Xbox One? Share your opinions and feedback on the TopMob Discord server.
