According to Playground Games, the map will have Tokyo, the largest city present in the franchise, and also the largest variety of scenarios. The photos show places such as mountain roads (the togues), open fields, snowy mountains and inland towns.
Improvements were announced in the car modification system, sounds and animations, such as the steering wheel turning 540° and having detailed animation of the driver steering. More than 550 cars are available during launch and there will be more additions with the updates.
The car categories have been updated. Forza Horizon 6 will have a new class, the R, for track cars. It was not said if there will be racetracks on the map.
Players will be able to participate in encounters at designated points, such as those that take place in large parking lots in Japan. New events have been created with this location in mind, such as togue battles and street races.
Forza Horizon 6 can be reserved in two versions: the basic one costs R$ 299 and the Premium costs R$ 549. The most expensive option allows you to play 4 days before launch and will have additional car packs installed, in addition to car passes to have access to the next paid content that is released.
