Forza Horizon 6 will star in Microsoft's first gaming showcase of 2026. Rockstar is still claiming fired employees were leaking game secrets. And the anime studio behind Neon Genesis Evangelion is officially no more. Welcome to the latest edition of Morning Checkpoint, Kotaku 's daily roundup of gaming news and culture, which is even later than usual today because we're all hung over from The Game Awards.

"While we can't reveal any specific details quite yet, we will of course be following in the footsteps of Forza Horizon 5 in delivering a broad range of cars that players will know and love. Japan - of course - has a unique car culture all of its own, and we're excited to have the opportunity to explore that in this game,"

The next Forza Horizon game could be announced sooner rather than later. Days after a leak hinted at the setting of the next entry in Xbox's arcade racing franchise, a report claims Forza Horizon 6 could be announced next month. The game is reportedly planned to be revealed at Tokyo Game Show in September. The last entry in the series, Forza Horizon 5, was first released on PC and Xbox consoles in 2021, with a PS5 version launching in April this year.
