Overview

  • A now-deleted Instagram post from Australian importer Cult & Classic described a Forza Horizon photographer scanning late‑model kei cars for the next installment.
  • Kei cars are largely unique to Japan, leading outlets to suggest the franchise’s next open world may be based there.
  • The post referenced a Playground Games developer and said the photographer flew from the U.S. due to a lack of late‑model kei cars in America.
  • Xbox and Playground Games have not announced the next Forza Horizon or its setting, and there is no release date or window.
  • Coverage notes Phil Spencer previously teased a new Forza in 2026, while Forza Horizon 5 continues to receive updates following its PS5 release.
