Playground Games has detailed upcoming Forza Horizon 6 series updates in a roadmap covering late 2026 and 2027. New reward cars are among the additions planned for the game's next series updates.

The next series and expansion windows
The near-term schedule covers three numbered series, split between the end of this year and the opening months of the next. Playground has placed them in two release windows:
| Series | Planned timing |
|---|---|
| Series 8 and Series 9 | Before the end of 2026 |
| Series 10 | January and February 2027 |
The first expansion is planned for January 2027, putting it in the same month that the Series 10 window begins. The early-year schedule therefore includes both series content and an expansion, rather than a choice between the two.
Playground Games is keeping the expansion's details under wraps for now. The studio says it will discuss it soon, leaving the expansion's content reveal for a separate announcement.
What follows later in 2027
A second expansion is also on the roadmap for 2027. The later stretch of the schedule has broader timing than the early-year plans, without the same month-by-month breakdown.
The Festival Playlist is set for an overhaul during that wider period. Playground discussed the planned overhaul alongside the roadmap, making it another strand of the update plans beyond cars and expansions.
New race routes are also planned for Forza Horizon 6's open-world Japan setting, adding more places to race alongside the vehicles coming through future rewards.
