It was confirmed back in December 2025 that the next Xbox Developers Direct will showcase Forza Horizon 6. Not much is known yet about the game, apart from its release window and the fact that it will be set in Japan. The Xbox Developers Direct scheduled for January 22 will have more news about Forza Horizon 6, including gameplay, new features, and much more.
You can tune into the Xbox Developer’s Direct on January 22nd at 10 AM Pacific, 1 PM Eastern, or 6 PM UK.
With Forza Horizon 5 still wildly popular and console sales driving huge momentum for Xbox, the timing couldn’t be better. Developer Direct has become Microsoft’s platform to put its strongest upcoming titles front and center, and putting Forza Horizon 6 in the main spotlight suggests we’re about to see more than just a few screenshots or quick clips.
What To Expect From Developer’s Direct
Forza Horizon 6 will be a major part of the event. Xbox confirmed that the Forza segment will showcase the first look at gameplay, new features, and how Japan looks in the world of Forza. In short, we will finally have a complete look at what Forza Horizon 6 has in store for racing fans who have been waiting for the game since its announcement.
The other two games that will be a major part of the event are the new Fable game and the Beast of Reincarnation.
Fable is one of the most anticipated games of 2026. Fans have been waiting for a gameplay reveal since the initial announcement at the Xbox Game Showcase. For the first time, we will have an in-depth look at the gameplay and new features. Similarly, Beast of Reincarnation will also be showcased with a gameplay trailer and more news.
In short, Xbox Developers Direct this year is stacked. By the looks of it, skipping out on Xbox Wrapped was a good idea, given how big of a year 2026 is going to be for Xbox.
