Forza Horizon 6 PS5 Release: Pre-Order Details

Playground Games has confirmed that Forza Horizon 6 will launch on PlayStation 5 on January 26, 2027, ending speculation about the racing game's multi-platform rollout. Pre-orders for the PS5 version are now available across three distinct editions, each matching the pricing structure offered on Xbox.

Three editions are available for PS5 players. The standard edition retails for $69.99 and includes the base game plus a pre-order bonus. The deluxe edition costs $99.99 and adds the Welcome Pack and Car Pass to the standard content. The premium edition, priced at $119.99, represents the most comprehensive package with VIP membership, Time Attack and Italian Passion car packs, and access to two upcoming expansions.

All players who pre-order before release day will receive an exclusive pre-tuned Ferrari J50 waiting in their garage upon first launch. This bonus applies uniformly across all three editions, making the pre-order incentive consistent regardless of which version players choose.

The premium edition's standout feature is five days of early access, allowing players to begin on January 21, 2027. This early access date coincides with a free content update rolling out simultaneously across all platforms. One of the two expansions included with the premium edition will also deploy on the early access launch day, with the second expansion arriving at a later unspecified date. Players who initially purchase a cheaper edition can upgrade to premium content later if desired.

The deluxe edition bridges the gap between base and premium offerings. Beyond the standard game, it provides the Welcome Pack and Car Pass, both of which are also included in the premium tier. For players seeking the complete experience without committing to the highest price point, this middle option delivers substantial additional value.

The standard edition will receive a physical release alongside digital distribution, providing flexibility for players who prefer physical media. This version contains only the base game and the pre-order bonus Ferrari J50.

Forza Horizon 6's arrival on PS5 marks a significant expansion of the franchise's reach beyond Xbox platforms. The game's predecessor, Forza Horizon 5, achieved substantial sales success, and industry observers anticipate the PS5 version could replicate that performance. Strong sales numbers may help secure the franchise's multi-platform future, distinguishing it from other Xbox-published titles that have returned to exclusivity.
