We got a pretty decent look at Forza Horizon 6 Japan map in the Xbox Developer Direct, showcasing not only gameplay features but also small parts of the map. Playground Games has doubled down and released a new biomes showcase for the game, which offers a more detailed look at the Japanese settings players are so excited about.
What Forza Horizon 6 Map Has In Store For The Fans
The video shows all the various environments that you will be able to drive through. You are not just limited to urban Japan; there is so much more to explore.
From rural areas with off-roading potential, long highways to test your top speed, mountain passes to tandem with your friends, snow biomes to test your off-road vehicles, and coastal areas to just take in the view, Playground Games’ interpretation of Japan looks pretty good. On top of that, the dynamic weather will keep things interesting and fresh every drive.
Each biome offers its own character and driving challenges, giving players a sense that this isn’t just “a big map,” but a world packed with variety to explore.
With Forza Horizon 5’s Mexico map estimated at more than 100 square kilometers, Japan’s setting looks to push the needle even further both in scale and density. Early reporting from developers and previews suggests this will be the largest and most detailed Forza Horizon map yet, with rich terrain and plenty of gameplay tucked into every corner.
With seasonal effects, varied terrain, and the largest urban environment yet, this may well be one of the most expansive and engaging worlds Playground Games has built for the Horizon series.
A major part of that scale comes from Japan’s signature urban environment. Forza Horizon 6 will include Tokyo City, which Playground Games has confirmed will be much larger and more layered than any urban area in previous entries.
The response from the community has also been very positive. Fans are already speculating what iconic real-world locations might be in the game. Overall, every racing game fan is excited for Forza Horizon 6, and how can they not be? The biggest racing game is coming to a country with such a rich car culture.
If you want to cruise diverse biomes at 4K and 60fps, the new trailer gives a solid first taste, and for fans who love exploration as much as racing, Japan’s massive playground looks worth the wait
