Playground Games' open-world arcade racer, released May 19 2026 on an updated ForzaTech engine with Turn 10 joining development. Horizon 6 brings ray-traced reflections and global illumination to the series at world scale — a noticeable bump over Horizon 5's GI implementation.
How demanding is Forza Horizon 6?
Forza Horizon 6 runs on an updated ForzaTech engine with ray-traced reflections on cars and the environment, plus ray-traced global illumination. PC supports DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, AMD FSR 4 and Intel XeSS 2.1. The combination of high-detail car models, dynamic weather and dense environmental geometry is what stretches GPU memory and bandwidth most.
What GPU do you need for Forza Horizon 6?
Our estimates put the RTX 5060 around 100 FPS at 1080p; an RTX 5070 Ti or Radeon RX 9070 XT comfortably clears 120 FPS at 1440p. Native 4K above 120 FPS lands on the RTX 5090 — the RTX 5080 sits around 100 FPS at 4K maxed. With DLSS 4 Quality and Frame Generation, most RTX 50 cards comfortably hit high-refresh 4K.
