Forza Horizon 6 PS5 Date Reportedly Set for January 2027

A report from Dealabs leaker billbil-kun says Forza Horizon 6 will be released on PlayStation 5 on January 26, 2027, rather than in 2026 as previously indicated by developer Playground Games. The date has not been officially confirmed, and the reason for the apparent change is unknown. The reported date is based on billbil-kun’s findings, which were repeated across reports but trace back to the same underlying leak. The information therefore does not amount to independent confirmation. The reports say an official announcement and the opening of preorders were expected this week, but no such announcement is established in the material available as of October 7. Playground said in September that the PS5 version remained on track for release in 2026 and invited players to wishlist the game on the PlayStation Store. The January date, if accurate, would put the release beyond that schedule. The reports do not establish when or why the plan may have changed, and they do not say whether the earlier statement reflected the schedule at the time it was made. The leak also says the PS5 game will be sold physically with a disc, as well as digitally.
