Forza Horizon 6 Could Hit PS5 In 2027 With A Physical Edition
Reports suggest that the racing game Forza Horizon 6 may be delayed for its PlayStation 5 release until January 2027. Despite previous developer statements, industry leaks indicate a physical edition will still be available for the console.
Why it matters
The potential delay and physical release details are significant for the gaming community and reflect ongoing trends in cross-platform software distribution.
It’s no secret that Forza Horizon 6 is a great racing game, and PS5 fans can breathe a sigh of relief: new reports suggest it’s still coming, but now in 2027.
Playground Games revealed plans to launch Forza Horizon 6 on PS5 at a developer direct in January 2026, and today, new reports suggest the plan hasn’t changed, but the date may have. While Forza 6 has been forecast to come to PlayStation 5 in 2026 , new reports suggest it may now arrive in 2027; and although PlayStation is still facing backlash for stopping physical media production, it’s apparently still hitting the console full force with a physical edition on the Sony platform. If PlayStation fans have missed it, the launch trailer for Forza Horizon 6 is below.
