Xbox and 8BitDo reveal Japan-themed Forza Horizon 6 gear collection

Microsoft has officially announced a new collection of limited-edition accessories to celebrate the upcoming Forza Horizon 6, which takes the festival to Japan. The lineup includes a custom Xbox Wireless controller, a Wireless headset, and a matching 8BitDo Charging Dock, all featuring vibrant aesthetics inspired by Japanese street racing culture and mountain “Touge” roads.

The Xbox Wireless controller – Forza Horizon 6 Limited Edition stands out as one of the most colourful entries in the Xbox hardware lineup. It features a transparent cyan top case that transitions into a metallic gradient, with a core design inspired by a top-down view of Japan's winding Touge mountain roads. The controller is equipped with a silver metallic D-pad and two-tone rubberised diamond grips. It offers the standard 40 hours of battery life and is compatible across Xbox consoles, PCs, and mobile devices via Bluetooth and Xbox Wireless.

The companion Xbox Wireless Headset – Forza Horizon 6 Limited Edition doubles down on the festival aesthetic with transparent cyan and pink accents. Beyond its looks, the headset is engineered for deep immersion, featuring custom sound effects that blend the roar of a Japanese V8 engine with the game's UI sounds for actions like turning on and pairing. It supports advanced spatial audio technologies, including Dolby Atmos and DTS Headphone: X. For those playing on PC or handhelds, the inclusion of Bluetooth LE Audio ensures low-latency stereo sound and wideband voice support for clearer party chats.

To keep the gear powered, 8BitDo has collaborated on an officially licensed charging dock designed specifically to match this collection. The dock uses magnetic alignment to fully charge a controller in approximately 3 hours and includes a 1,100 mAh rechargeable battery pack with a custom-coloured battery door.

This entire collection is currently available for pre-order. The Forza Horizon 6 Limited Edition controller is available for £84.99/$89.99/€89.99, the headset for £124.99/$134.99/£134.99, and 8BitDo's charging dock for $34.99.
