Discover the latest updates, gameplay details, and release dates for the new world of Fable and Forza Horizon 6’s Japan map in our complete guide.
At the Xbox Developer Direct on 22 January 2026, Playground Games finally unveiled the much-anticipated gameplay trailers and release dates for their two blockbuster projects: Fable and Forza Horizon 6.
The biggest highlight for both games is the official confirmation of a PlayStation 5 version, alongside Xbox and PC. Here are the latest updates from the worlds of Albion and the skies of Japan:
Playground Games is blending Fable’s signature British humour with a modern action-RPG formula.
Release Date: Fall 2026 (simultaneously launching for Xbox Series X/S, PC, and PS5).
Story Intro: You’ll start the game as a child. After your village (and your grandmother) are mysteriously turned to stone, your journey to become Albion’s “first hero of the new generation” begins.
Open World & NPCs: Albion is now a seamless open world. Thanks to the new “Living Population” system, over 1,000 unique NPCs have their own daily routines, personalities, and shifting opinions about you.
Morality System: Instead of classic black-and-white (good-evil) choices, the new reputation system is more grey and subjective. Gaining wealth might make some people happy, but turn others against you.
Gameplay: The combat system is fluid, reminiscent of The Witcher 3. Instantly switch between sword, bow, and magic. Life simulation elements like buying houses, getting married, and farming make a full comeback.
The dream fans have waited years for is finally coming true: This time, the Festival heads to Japan!
Release Date: 19 May 2026 (for Xbox and PC). The PS5 version will arrive in late 2026.
Map: The largest and most vertical map in the series. Tokyo City is described as the most complex and densely packed driving space ever in a Forza game. From drifting on mountain touge roads to neon-lit Tokyo streets, expect massive variety.
Car List: Over 550 cars at launch. Cover stars include the 2025 Toyota GR GT Prototype and 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser.
New Features:
Car Meets: Special social hubs on the map where you can meet other players and show off your cars.
The Estate: A mode where you can build and customise your own garage and property permanently in the open world.
Tyre Wear: Your driving style will visually and technically affect tyre wear.
