TheForza Horizongames are iconic for their gorgeous environments almost as much as their cars, and there are some prime locations where the next game could be set. The series has already set its previous titles in various places around the world. However, a lot of the best possible locations have yet to be the home of aForza Horizongame. Since the game could take place almost anywhere in the world, there is no shortage of options. When it comes toForza Horizon 6, there are a lot of perfect locations to choose from.

When it comes to anopen-world game likeForza Horizon, the game world is one of the most vital aspects of the experience as a whole. This has been especially important when it comes to theForza Horizon series, as the high speeds at which players will be driving across the world require a world that is both interesting and beautiful to explore.Horizon 4’s England and Scotland and especiallyHorizon 5’s Mexico immediately come to mind in this regard, with both providing vast, memorable backdrops for the game’s racing action. For that reason, discussions regardingForza Horizon 6should cover where it will take place.

Forza Horizon’s World Tour Still Has Many Potential Destinations

One possible location that has already been the subject of someForza Horizon 6rumorsis Japan. It’s a bit surprising that Japan hasn’t appeared before in the series, considering what sorts of tracks it could bring to the table. Among the memorable designs could be mountain tracks inspired by Mt. Fuji, or brightly-lit, bustling city tracks designed to remind players of downtown Tokyo. Another sight worth recreating would be the scene of cherry blossom trees in full bloom as the player drives through a forest. For how many iconic sights it could create, Japan could be perfect forForza Horizon 6.

New Zealand is another valid option, as although Australia was already explored in the unfortunatelydelistedForza Horizon 3, the unique charm of its island neighbor would be a perfect next stop. Thanks to its remarkable environmental diversity, New Zealand inForza Horizoncould let players take a drive from snowy mountain peaks to the sunny beaches on the coast. New Zealand’s unique culture and art scene can also provide a memorable theme for the Horizon Festival, especially if some unique event types could come out of the deal. Even though New Zealand wouldn’t be the biggest countryForza Horizonhas been to, it would be memorable all the same.

Another area that should be in contention is Canada. After all, afterForza Horizon 5went to Mexico, it would be somewhat amusing for the next game to hop straight over the United States to enter Canada. Aside from the novelty, Canada would have a lot to offer for the next Horizon Festival. Its pristine lakes and forests would be a sight to see, and come the winter season, it could create some of the best snow and ice courses in the series. With a rich sports culture and lots of character, Canada deserves to be on the shortlist forForza Horizon 6’s potential destinations.

Forza Horizon 6is probably far in the distance, but the series has a lot to live up to. Regarding themassive success ofForza Horizon’s driving experience, few other games have been able to measure up. The rolling open world is one ofForza Horizon’s calling cards, and one of the most important pieces of the puzzle when it comes to planning outForza Horizon 6. After Great Britain and Mexico, expectations are high for what will come next. HopefullyForza Horizon 6’s next country will deliver on the series' promise.

Forza Horizon 5is available now for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
