Forza Horizon 6 Takes the Race Into City Life

The City Life Series trailer offers a fresh look at how Forza Horizon 6 plans to keep its festival in motion: with new ways to race, personalize, and play around in its world. Developed by Playground Games, the hit racing series has long made its open-road spectacle feel like a celebration, and this update looks set to bring that same energy to the city.

A Permanent Route Changes the Pace

The standout addition is a new permanent race route, giving players another course to learn, master, and revisit beyond the fleeting rhythm of a limited-time event. A route that sticks around can become part of the game’s familiar geography—one more proving ground for clean lines, daring overtakes, and the perfect run. The series’ blend of driving and exploration is central to its appeal, as seen in the broader Forza Horizon lineage and the open-world racing tradition that IGN’s Forza coverage follows.

Make the City Your Own

Alongside the route, the trailer highlights new visual customization options and an IKEA prop pack, a playful pairing that puts self-expression front and center. The customization additions promise fresh ways to shape a player’s look, while the furniture-themed props bring a distinctly everyday twist to the game’s creative possibilities. That mix of polish and personality suits a series built around making its world feel welcoming, much like the community-driven spirit celebrated on the Xbox Forza Horizon page and the creative tools showcased across Steam.

City Life Arrives November 5

The City Life Series launches in Forza Horizon 6 on November 5 for Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam. With a permanent route, fresh visual options, and a prop pack that adds a dash of domestic whimsy, the update appears designed to give players more reasons to return to the festival and make the city their own. Further details are available through Xbox and the game’s Steam listing.
