PlayGround Games’ latest open-world racing game, Forza Horizon 6, is currently out for early access and the full game is scheduled to launch on May 19, 2026.
According to the latest reports, this game has already crossed a major milestone even before the full game launch. Let’s check out some more details in this article.
Crossing 1 million players in early access
According to a screenshot shared online through DayOne, nearly 1.2 million players have already played the game in early access.
The premium edition of the game costs $120; it is estimated that Forza Horizon 6 has already generated more than $140 million in revenue. Do remember that the game has not been launched yet.
This is the figure that only accounts for the players who have purchased the most expensive version of the game.
There is no doubt that the total revenue is going to rise even more once the game officially launches on May 19, 2026. Not everyone can afford the premium edition and most of the gamers purchase the Standard Edition copies.
