After covering how the Limited Edition Forza Horizon 6 controller and headset leaked online, we now have our first official look at both — and wow, they look great.
The controller and headset are currently up for pre-order and are set to release alongside Forza Horizon 6 on May 19, 2026.

Xbox describes the controller as:
"Inspired by the winding Touge roads of Japan, the Xbox controller blends high-performance style with festival flair. Lock into the open-world driving action with black and pink diamond-patterned grips. Get up to 40 hours of battery life."
Next up is the Forza Horizon 6 Wireless Xbox Headset. I actually prefer the design here over the controller. I was expecting cherry blossoms on the controller, but I digress.
Here’s how the headset is described by Xbox:
“Feel the pulse of the Horizon Festival and the energy of Japan through custom start-up sounds. Stay in the zone with up to 20 hours of battery life from the internal rechargeable battery.”
I’m desperately in need of a new controller. My Elite Series 1, which I’ll admit is pretty haggard after years of use, is on its last legs. The designs here are seriously tempting, but honestly, it would feel like a disservice to actually game with one.
These are the kind of accessories I’d rather have on display somewhere in my office, but that's just me.
With that said, let me know what you think of these new accessories. Are you picking one up, both, or skipping them entirely?
