Forza Horizon 6 launches May 19, and if a well-sourced leak holds up, Xbox plans to send it off in style with a matching limited edition wireless controller and headset dropping the same day.
The report comes from billbil-kun on Dealabs, a leaker with a long track record of accurate hardware and software reveals. According to the leak, both accessories will hit shelves on May 19, the exact same date as Forza Horizon 6 itself on Xbox Series X/S and PC.
What the leak says about pricing
The Forza Horizon 6 Limited Edition Controller is reportedly priced at $89.99, which puts it $10 above the Doom: The Dark Ages limited edition controller that released last year. That incremental price bump tracks with what Xbox has been doing with premium peripheral tie-ins.
The headset is the bigger story here. At $134.99, the Forza Horizon 6 Limited Edition Headset would be only the second limited edition Xbox Series X/S headset ever released. The first was the Starfield headset, so this is genuinely rare territory for Xbox accessories.
Here's the thing: the actual design of both products has not been revealed yet. Billbil-kun shared pricing and release date, but no images or visual details have surfaced. Microsoft also has not announced either accessory officially.
A tradition that started with Forza Horizon 5
Forza Horizon 5 got its own limited edition controller back in 2021, a translucent yellow design with bright pink and blue splatters nodding to the Horizon Festival aesthetic. That controller became a collector's item for Forza fans, and it set a precedent for the series getting dedicated hardware alongside major releases.
Forza Horizon 6 continuing that tradition makes sense, especially given the game's Japan setting, which gives Playground Games plenty of visual inspiration to work with for a controller design.

These are leaked details from Dealabs insider billbil-kun, not an official Microsoft announcement. Pricing and release dates could change before any formal reveal.
The game itself arrives May 19, PS5 version later
Forza Horizon 6 launches May 19 on Xbox Series X/S and PC. Players who pick up the Premium Edition get early access starting May 15. A PlayStation 5 version has been confirmed but will arrive later in 2026, with no specific date attached yet.
The game marks a significant shift from previous entries. Rather than dropping players directly into the Horizon Festival, Forza Horizon 6 starts you as a tourist in Japan who has to qualify for the festival. It is a different kind of opening that positions the world as something to earn rather than something handed to you.
For anyone planning to grab both the game and the accessories at launch, keep an eye on official Xbox channels for the formal reveal. If billbil-kun's track record means anything, an announcement should not be far off. Check out the latest gaming news for updates as they land, and browse more guides once the game is out.
