Forza Horizon 6 is being delayed on PS5 to January 2027

Playground Games has officially delayed the PlayStation 5 release of Forza Horizon 6 to January 26, 2027. The new launch date will coincide with a major game expansion, and a Premium Edition will be available for early access.
Why it matters
This delay highlights the ongoing cross-platform strategy for Microsoft-owned gaming titles on competitor hardware.
Playground Games first revealed earlier this year that Forza Horizon 6 would be arriving on PS5 in 2026, but the launch is now being pushed back. I reported last month that there would be a delay to early next year, and Forza Horizon 6 is now officially debuting on January 26th, 2027.
