    Forza Horizon 6 is real, and in Japan - All we know so far

    Forza Horizon 6 is officially official in Japan, definitely confirmed. But, what else is there to spot so far? Traxion has sifted through the trailer, spotted locations on Google Maps, read all of the available FAQs, and this is everything we know so far about Forza Horizon 6. Such as, when will the PS5 version launch? What should you expect from the Japanese setting? Aren't there other open-world driving games already in the same country? Will the change of leadership affect the end result? Is it on Xbox One? As ever, let us know your thoughts in the comments below, including which Japanese cars you would like to see included in FH6.

    Le Mans Ultimate hits consoles and Virtual Series returns!

    Le Mans Ultimate is coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, ELMS DLC starts to arrive in September and the Le Mans Virtual Series is set to return, with qualifying starting later this year. That’s a big dump of headline news for LMU drivers, oh and there’s going to be an in-game livery shop. Join John Munro and Thomas Harrison-Lord as they break down the latest updates, not forgetting that a career mode should arrive in early 2026. The console porting deal is said to be in the “late state negotiations” with development work set to commence in the “coming weeks”. It all comes from Motorsport Games and Studio 397 CEO Stephen Hood, who dropped the updates during a positive earnings call where a second successive quarter of profit was recorded for the once floundering outfit.

    The Current State of Assetto Corsa EVO
