Playground Games released an official trailer for Forza Horizon 6 featuring the 2008 Mazda Furai concept car [1].

The reveal highlights the game's ongoing expansion of its vehicle roster and the introduction of specific limited-time events. By integrating high-profile concept cars, the developer aims to attract both automotive enthusiasts and core gamers to the title's live-service elements.

The Mazda Furai, a Wankel-powered vehicle originally debuted in 2008 [1], serves as the centerpiece for the latest promotional push. This addition kicks off the game's Festival Playlist, a series of rotating challenges and car additions designed to keep the gameplay experience fresh for the community.

According to the current schedule, the Festival Playlist challenges run from May 21 to May 28 [3]. Players can engage with these events to unlock rewards and test the performance of the Furai within the game's open-world environment.

Forza Horizon 6 is currently available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox Cloud, and PC via Steam and the Xbox app [2]. In a significant shift for the franchise's availability, a PlayStation 5 version is slated for release later in 2026 [1].

The trailer was showcased during an Xbox developer direct event, emphasizing the technical fidelity of the car models and the environmental detail of the game's settings [2]. The inclusion of the Furai emphasizes the developer's focus on rare and experimental automotive design.

The announcement of a PlayStation 5 version marks a pivotal transition for the Forza franchise, moving from a Microsoft-exclusive ecosystem to a multi-platform release strategy. This expansion, coupled with the use of niche concept cars like the Furai to drive engagement through time-limited 'Festival Playlists,' suggests a strategy to maximize the player base and long-term monetization of the title.
