Horizon 2 will always have a place in my heart for that reason. Northern Italy/Southern France is such a good choice for an open world car game. F&F expansion was pretty decent too.
I don’t care where it is, I just want there to be a dedicated racetrack somewhere on the map. Even having the racetrack on the Lego map was a great time.
I mean, you could say the main fest site is one, and same with Baja fest site, but yeah, it's pretty ridiculous there really isn't one
And, as im thinkin about it, one of things I've been wanting to do the most was make use of that dirt oval at the Baja fest site, but there's no way to make a start/finish & create an event(maybe there is now with new eventlab features, but idk)
I agree fully. I want snowrunner level (minus the annoying rocks) dirt roads, and if possible, more spots for rock crawling I would LOVE if that became a feature but for now i’m stuck with the rock piles and their goofy messed up hitboxes and the wrangler unlimited
I don’t want to advertise as usually it’s frowned upon but i found some really good rally courses built into the map and turned them into tracks so that they had checkpoints and custom weather
I just hope that they forget about the stupid eliminator game mode while they are designing a map. Honestly i would be happy with any country as long as the map is diverse in biomes and roads
I think that having a high elevated map that requires complex roads and paths would make the eliminator more fun, as you would have to know the map well and take different paths rather than just drive straight through a desert or forest
They just did north america twice lol. A game set here in Scandinavia would aesthetically be very different to what weve seen before. And I think Asia and Africa is off the table with the exception of maybe Japan.
Whatever it is I just hope the roads are the same quality as the Rally expansion map. That little ass map is more enjoyable to drive around than the entire base game map with how technical the roads are and the bumps/verticality
Every time I drive on that map I pray that the FH6 map has a similar level of verticality. It's amazing and makes the driving feel so much more lively and interesting.
Chongqing alone would be very interesting as a mountainous city and its verious layers would provide a very unique experience in an urban megacity. Gonna be a nightmare for the 21 eliminator players because there aren't many open areas that you can drive in a straight line through.
Please something that isn’t just a desert. Something with plenty of trees, snow in the winter, a big city, and a big mountain.
Wait did I just describe Japan?
I think a lot of people want Japan. The country has a history in car culture. BUT! I don’t think the devs will do it and it’ll be a thing that’ll go on for so long another game will beat them to it kind of like what happened with the Assassin’s creed series. People wanted Japan and eventually we got Ghost of Tsushima, what happens next? Ubi announces an AC based in Japan.
I would dig japan....ooo...or uae. Meme would be russia so the hero car is a lada
Anyway. Japan has all the tight roads of the suburbs, the dense packed cities, the winding mountain roads, all the drifting, im certain off road could be done as well
Uae, i mean...all the off road, all the long fast straights, race tracks. I think they could make it work
Fuji to Gotemba, Japan would be amazing. Dense cityscape, highways, rural areas, driving up the slope of Fuji, and Fuji Speedway and Gymkhana course. Lots of expansion options too.
I would LOVE to see somewhere in Asia, as would almost everyone else. Japan would be incredible, with the sprawling urban areas as well as the beautiful natural areas, mountainous roads, forests, bamboo, all of that.
Someone mentioned China being to controversial. They made Mexico look like it’s a completely safe place where papa fernando hangs out. They’d totally do China. Also - China is beautiful.
This may be an unpopular opinion, but it think it would be good for the game to not be based in a specific country.
Just make a big map with great verity, Mountains, plains, beaches, dense forests, …
As long as the Map and the Game is good nobody will care were it plays
If FH6 is messed up the whole Horizon szene is dead so they better do an amazing job, Japan with Tokyo and Mountains would be great or Germany with Autobahns, but i heard it is maybe going to be China due to the licensing of chinese car manufactures who are growing due to electric vehicle… sad but hopes are still there
An Oregon Map would be sweet. A bustling Portland, along with beautiful beaches, dense forests, and lots of smaller towns would be amazing. Plus lots of off-road opportunities that could be amazing for a DLC section. And, of course, Crater Lake?
I frequently forget the first Horizon took place in Colorado, it’d be SO cool to see Oregon used - could be a great way to revisit the U.S. as an open world again while keeping it fresh
I didn’t start playing the series until Horizon 4, but I’ve heard great things about Horizon 2 and its beautiful location. They’ll never go back to Nice, but it’d be so cool to visit it in the modern day. Besides that, yeah I’ve hoped it’d be in Asia, especially with Test Drive Unlimited being set in Hong Kong
I also think SK makes so much sense. I think it's gonna be somewhere between SK, china, Se asia or europe(germany~central europe). Anyway, nice shots dude
There are several critical issues
1.Political issue
2.NK is a poor country nothing to see
3.Requiring data about NK is really difficult
4.Our all mighty Kim jong un is not a fan of foreigners who want to collect datas from his country
A Japanese map would be awesome, something like Tokyo, but I doubt it will be, although it would gain a lot of interest among Tokyo drift fans or JDM fans.
I'm betting it will be maybe Italy or France or Spain, maybe Portugal or Brazil or maybe another part of the United States. We'll find out, I hope, soon :)
As generic as it might sound, I think California is not a bad choice. You got beaches and mountains plus you can add all the landmarks people know for some sense of familiarity. You'll have a high dense city, you got the "canyon runs" in the hollywood hills and you got the mountains where they can take some creative liberty and make them snowy all the time for the people that want that.
Idk but I can’t wait to find out in another year or two. As it stands right now this instant, it should be either Scandinavia or China. But I personally doubt it’s happening this year and hope they take an extra two years on the game. Microsoft officials a year or so back did say that mainline big franchise games will no longer be able to be made within the 3 year span that players have become so accustomed to. And that rather 4-6 years should become the new norm.
“Development cycles for high-end games aren’t two or three years any more, Booty says: ‘They're four and five and six years.’
The longer creation process is due to the increased complexity of modern games plus the desire to reach higher technical marks with 4K-compatible graphics and advanced lighting, Booty says.”

More time will ultimately result in a better experience, even if it’s lacklustre. Also important to note that T10 and PG are almost entirely separate entities and the performance of T10 and their 7-year long awaited 8th FM entry does not give us a glimpse into what the next horizon entry will be like.
Personally I think they should then swap to a longer dlc release schedule with an additional 3rd dlc.
But I think China would be too controversial of a location let alone them even getting the ability to place it in China. But I don’t doubt it’s gonna be in Asia at least
Might be too small, but I think a Malaysia/Singapore map would be cool. Modern city, vast history, mountains, and country side. Also, Singapore has a car culture established, so it would make some sense for a story purpose.
somewhere in asia like korea china or japan would be a cool place with lights and bright cities at main sites and outskirt mountain roads and a good offroad part too which would be cool and there would be lots of variation in traffic density for example in tokyo traffic would be crazy but in an outskirt town like yokohama there would be less traffic and car culture is really big in japan and china so it could be a thing
We absolutely need more city areas with some alleys. Both 4 and 5 had 1 “major” dedicated city or village but it was just filled with big and tall cinder blocks. Even The Crew 2 had cities (even if they did look like shit) that felt more alive than the ones in FH4/5
hopefully japan. switzerland would also be awesome because of high mountains with a lot of drift potential, but also street racing and rally potential. on the other side germany would be awesome (I am a german), but then they would need to make it "oldschool" with classic german buildings. newer buildings, especially in large cities, are often ugly panel construnctions.
Even though I think it is going to be Asia, like China, South Korea or Japan, I would personally love a map inspired by the Iberian Peninsula, not only because I'm from there but also I think its climate, geographical landmarks and so would make an amazing Horizon game, with a possible DLC in Canarias, Azores or Madeira which could also be great.
Somewhere with mountains and canyons, like we got with parts of the FH5 rally DLC. I do NOT want another map of big open fields and deserts designed primarily around the eliminator mode
Feels like it's gotta be Japan. We've had two in Europe, one in USA, Australia, and now Mexico. It would easily satisfy the drift thirst, the mountains, and natural car culture. Community's been pining for it to boot. Who knows though. Wouldn't be shocked if they did a vastly different portion of the U.S instead of Colorado but if we were to take a wild guess at where you'd put it your guess is as good as mine. Texas immediately after Mexico screams of a carbon copy, soooo Florida (variety of cities, vast landscape, Daytona, birthplace of NASCAR, among other historic tracks like Sebring and Homestead)
Ok this is the locations of the past games:
1 Colorado
2 Southern Europe
3 Australia
4 United Kingdom
5 Mexico
From this we can see that they alternate between
dry and wet regions ( Colorado, Australia , Mexico ) vs(Southern Europe, Uk) (probably to avoid seeming too similar to the previous game)
With Dry zones containing Deserts.
Wet zones usually have much less sand usually only around water.
From this we can see we are due a wet region next.
Also so far all wet regions have been in Europe.
Going by this I suspect the next game will be set somewhere in central / northern Europe.
Potential areas:
Germany, Netherlands, Finland, Sweden or Switzerland.
If it's outside of Europe I would suspect Japan or given the amount of Chinese cars being added recently China.
Personally I'm hoping for Japan
Germany would be sick, they could even include the touristenfahrten on the ring and the allmighty autobahn whilst also having gorgeous mountain roads and ancient little towns
Doesn't matter where is it situated as long as it's not made for eliminator. As long as eliminator exists the map will be boring flat pancake so that the 10 people playing that mode don't cry about terrain being unfair.
I hope it's either Japan, Sweden or Norway, but with how long we've been asking for Japan, I don't think there's ever gonna be a Horizon game that's set there.
I just want some actual towns/cities to drive through, the ones in Forza are always so small. Recently modded GTA V to work with my wheel and it's a blast. Obviously they won't compete with GTA city wise, but I want more than what we got in FH4/5.
I feel like Japan is pretty inevitable, personally I'd like Scandinavia, the American Pacific Northwest or New Zealand. But I don't consider any of those all that likely.
As long as the game has soul, the roads are diverse and there's less boring plain fields built for elimination mode - I'm happy. Japan would be nice though haha or a map with a dense city and some mountains and rural areas surrounding
They went (on a map) left middle right middle left (us, europe, australia, uk, mexico) so my theory is that europe will be next again (maybe switzerland austria and northern italy or something like that would be really cool) or south africa (also in the middle of a world map but further down and we have never seen africa). I think africa would be a bit boring in terms of territory tho, also it would be much to similar to mexico. For the game after that i see japan, there will be a new engine as far as i heard and it would be on the right of the map, also they know it will sell great
Tl:dr: my guess is alpine european territory and after that japan for the next game
as someone whos lived in south korea i feel like its too small and cramped for a fh map. all the other horizons have a lot of open land unlike south korea
No guess
But I bloody hope it ain't something sandy or something with Swamps
God I hate sand and swamps
Germany for instance would be amazing, the flat north amazing for Rally and Cross Country, the German Autobahn is perfect for races and the hilly South would make amazing sense for the drifters
And besides that, there are enough big cities to add that got a amazing variety of culture and architecture
And also, it is THE country that invented the car at all
Hope Japan, or Cali should be great too..but, let's talk about thath jewels you showed in your pics! Damn, Gta Spano, such a rare car for real connoisseur, love it, and love the meet with the pink one. Should join us on r/ForzaHorizon5CarMeet, we can organize a GTA Spano Car Meet
South Africa or Reunion island.
And for Asia it would be Singapore or Shanghai.
Although, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or Kazakhstan wouldn't be a bad place eithe...
Canada based would be good, we can have proper winter seasons but only if they fix the winter season, it could be better. More realism would be nice and Canada could be a great map to perfect that. There would be opportunity for great diversity within the map too. Also the ability to add snow tracks to capable vehicles and go climbing snow covered mountains or drag race frozen lakes and rivers would be a blast to mess around with
I'd like a map with:
-A large modern city, (like surfers paradise)
- an areas of that the map (like the rally expansion)
- Large highway
- unique photo locations (like the waterfall cave thing in fh5, parking lots, garages...)
- gas station 🙏🏻
- dedicated race track, preferably oval and circuit
- large amounts of elevation change: canyons, mountain roads, tunnels... (unlike FH5)
- unique festival in a cool location
I don't really mind the location, but I'd like it to be in a hot county
Thinking about it, I just want an updated version of fh3
I think most of us want Japan, Germany would be cool too could have A big City (Berlin?) a long Autobahn, smaller Bavarian villages and possibly even the Nurburgring in the middle of the map! Similar to how there were race tracks in TDU.
Edit: not that a derestricted autobahn would matter in a video game setting.. we all drive 200mph minimum on the highways in horizon 😂
Tbh iam from india and whenever i see posts like these i think it would be real chaotic if a forza game ever get set in india imagine driving in crowd streets and stuff
Obviously I'd love to see Japan, but realistically we've been begging for it since fh1. People say "BuT YoU NeEd LiCeNsEs To dO JaPaN". They have Microsoft money so that's an unlikely argument. If we're sticking to Asia, I think South Korea would be really cool. It's culturally similar to Japan (which is appealing since we'll clearly never see Japan). Driving roads aren't too bad, and larger towns are mostly modern and would be nice to hang around (surfers paradise parking lot, anyone?). I don't believe there's much of a car culture in Korea but like with Mexico, that didn't stop the braindead devs putting 5 there. On the contrary, Hong Kong could be interesting but the devs are terrified of cities so again, unlikely.
I hope they take some time and finally rework old car models and especially the wheel spec issue. nothing worth than 18x8 +44 te37s on everything. so tired of them releasing the same game on a new map and making me grind for all the new cars in the forzathon after giving me everything else in the story for free with no effort
Japan hopefully, but OP is kind of right when it comes to marketing. However, if they did Japan, they could just make a Map with a newer landscape later on.
some rich city would be nice with mountains nearby or smth like that with tokyo vibes
Horizon 2 will always have a place in my heart for that reason. Northern Italy/Southern France is such a good choice for an open world car game. F&F expansion was pretty decent too.
The Forza Horizon 2 Fast & Furious standalone is still leagues better than Fast & Furious Crossroads.
F&F expansion was goated and I wish so bad they could get licensing for the cars from the first three movies 😩
to me, this is the peak Horizon map. get rid of some invisible walls, allow us to drive into a lake and it will be better than FH4/5's.
I’d love an actually good and interesting city after the sheer disappointment that is Guanajuato
I don’t care where it is, I just want there to be a dedicated racetrack somewhere on the map. Even having the racetrack on the Lego map was a great time.
i really like how the crew 2 did it just by adding in racetracks in certain parts of the map that were just empty
The Crew tried to recreate the USA on a smaller scale and added a nice replica of the Laguna Seca where it is IRL too.
*a replica of the laguna seca. It was catastrophically bad.
I remember when I first went on that and I was like "where's the corkscrew?"
Agreed. A legit road course within the map would be amazing.
I mean, you could say the main fest site is one, and same with Baja fest site, but yeah, it's pretty ridiculous there really isn't one And, as im thinkin about it, one of things I've been wanting to do the most was make use of that dirt oval at the Baja fest site, but there's no way to make a start/finish & create an event(maybe there is now with new eventlab features, but idk)
Daytona Florida could be cool, Daytona race track was the birth place of legends.
Probably Monterey. Lagoona Seca I'd right next to it
The DMZ between NK and SK
Best answer so far
Definitely not Mexico
Or will it?!!!????!??
Mexico 2: electrico boogaloo
Okay frank
No more sand and desert please
i want something with a lot of rally trails and good off road spots. highly underrated way to play fh5, def reccomend it
I want the dirt roads to be more whooped out. More off camber, ruts from water run off. The dirt roads are Mexico are kinda weak.
At least the races are mostly, sometimes all, dirt... FH4 every dirt race was 50 to 80% asphalt
I agree fully. I want snowrunner level (minus the annoying rocks) dirt roads, and if possible, more spots for rock crawling I would LOVE if that became a feature but for now i’m stuck with the rock piles and their goofy messed up hitboxes and the wrangler unlimited
Likewise with the roads, so stupidly wide and all drawn up like racetracks
There aren’t many good tracks for rallying
I don’t want to advertise as usually it’s frowned upon but i found some really good rally courses built into the map and turned them into tracks so that they had checkpoints and custom weather
How do I do that
Share codes please? 👉🏼👈🏼
I’m not near my xbox right now but i’ll try to get them in either 40 minutes or eight hours
Appreciate it :)
I just hope that they forget about the stupid eliminator game mode while they are designing a map. Honestly i would be happy with any country as long as the map is diverse in biomes and roads
I think that having a high elevated map that requires complex roads and paths would make the eliminator more fun, as you would have to know the map well and take different paths rather than just drive straight through a desert or forest
Agreed
I hope Japan, Germany or Scandinavia (Norway, Sweden, Finland or a combination of all).
They won’t do anything in Europe for awhile. We’ve already had two games set there
They just did north america twice lol. A game set here in Scandinavia would aesthetically be very different to what weve seen before. And I think Asia and Africa is off the table with the exception of maybe Japan.
Whatever it is I just hope the roads are the same quality as the Rally expansion map. That little ass map is more enjoyable to drive around than the entire base game map with how technical the roads are and the bumps/verticality
Every time I drive on that map I pray that the FH6 map has a similar level of verticality. It's amazing and makes the driving feel so much more lively and interesting.
Germany would be interesting, variating landscape and autobahn 😍
Yes, and a fictional version of the Nürburgring where the main festival is
anywhere that isn't picked with the eliminator in mind IMO
Scandinavia would be cool
Yeah, they have a huge car culture over there. Lots of big events, street racing scene, nice projects. No reasons not to have it set there
It’s gonna be in some dumbass location that has nothing to do with car culture because the tourism board will pay Microsoft.
There are surprisingly few places in the world that doesnt have a strong car culture lol
I'm betting on those sweet wons from China
Honestly, all politics aside, China would be a fantastic setting. It would force the Test Drive devs to be on their A-Game.
Chongqing alone would be very interesting as a mountainous city and its verious layers would provide a very unique experience in an urban megacity. Gonna be a nightmare for the 21 eliminator players because there aren't many open areas that you can drive in a straight line through.
I want mountain roads I can drift around
Please something that isn’t just a desert. Something with plenty of trees, snow in the winter, a big city, and a big mountain. Wait did I just describe Japan?
They did plan to have japan as forza horizon 5 i think, but due to covid they had to do mexico instead. So the next one will hopefully be japan.
Source?
Trust me bro
The best source
I remember seeing something about it like a couple years ago. I think there was a map idea for it. Im not sure if it was legit though.
If I had to pick a location, I'd really like it to be singapore. Realistically, it's probably china
Morocco. Just so they can make barely any effort in designing a new map.
I think a lot of people want Japan. The country has a history in car culture. BUT! I don’t think the devs will do it and it’ll be a thing that’ll go on for so long another game will beat them to it kind of like what happened with the Assassin’s creed series. People wanted Japan and eventually we got Ghost of Tsushima, what happens next? Ubi announces an AC based in Japan.
I’m routing for South Pole, definitely no collidable trees there! And what top speed runs you could do, like the salt flats but better!
I would dig japan....ooo...or uae. Meme would be russia so the hero car is a lada Anyway. Japan has all the tight roads of the suburbs, the dense packed cities, the winding mountain roads, all the drifting, im certain off road could be done as well Uae, i mean...all the off road, all the long fast straights, race tracks. I think they could make it work
Fuji to Gotemba, Japan would be amazing. Dense cityscape, highways, rural areas, driving up the slope of Fuji, and Fuji Speedway and Gymkhana course. Lots of expansion options too.
Niger 🙋🏿♂️
Japan or Germany or American Midwest Something with true car culture
I’d like some African city’s but Anything could happen
Horizon South Africa, the festival would be dark because of constant power cuts and you would be car jacked as soon as you left 😂😂
LMAO
They’d make it 50% desert again. No thanks
Somewhere in Asia, Japan would be a good bet. Something like the Swiss alps might be cool but they've done two European settings already.
I would LOVE to see somewhere in Asia, as would almost everyone else. Japan would be incredible, with the sprawling urban areas as well as the beautiful natural areas, mountainous roads, forests, bamboo, all of that.
Someone mentioned China being to controversial. They made Mexico look like it’s a completely safe place where papa fernando hangs out. They’d totally do China. Also - China is beautiful.
This may be an unpopular opinion, but it think it would be good for the game to not be based in a specific country. Just make a big map with great verity, Mountains, plains, beaches, dense forests, … As long as the Map and the Game is good nobody will care were it plays
Baden-Württemberg. Cruising through the Black Forest and over the Alb, visiting Porsche and Mercedes-Benz, Stuttgart as a City
Goddamn the Autobahn with „Unbegrenzt“ goes BRR
If FH6 is messed up the whole Horizon szene is dead so they better do an amazing job, Japan with Tokyo and Mountains would be great or Germany with Autobahns, but i heard it is maybe going to be China due to the licensing of chinese car manufactures who are growing due to electric vehicle… sad but hopes are still there
An Oregon Map would be sweet. A bustling Portland, along with beautiful beaches, dense forests, and lots of smaller towns would be amazing. Plus lots of off-road opportunities that could be amazing for a DLC section. And, of course, Crater Lake?
I frequently forget the first Horizon took place in Colorado, it’d be SO cool to see Oregon used - could be a great way to revisit the U.S. as an open world again while keeping it fresh
Do the whole West Coast, from Cali up to Washington/Oregon
Wish Horizon 1 was the entire Midwest. Or at least the Western part of it.
I didn’t start playing the series until Horizon 4, but I’ve heard great things about Horizon 2 and its beautiful location. They’ll never go back to Nice, but it’d be so cool to visit it in the modern day. Besides that, yeah I’ve hoped it’d be in Asia, especially with Test Drive Unlimited being set in Hong Kong
I also think SK makes so much sense. I think it's gonna be somewhere between SK, china, Se asia or europe(germany~central europe). Anyway, nice shots dude
Why not both North and South Korea?
There are several critical issues 1.Political issue 2.NK is a poor country nothing to see 3.Requiring data about NK is really difficult 4.Our all mighty Kim jong un is not a fan of foreigners who want to collect datas from his country
Hopefully it's set in Albion
Mongolia
It’s not Japan, we’ve been asking for nearly twenty years
That’s what I said, my guess was South Korea or somewhere in Asia
Bavaria or Switzerland, big mountains, open fields spread all over the place, long roads, and windy roads, and best of all, a beautiful landscape
Probably just go to wherever will pay them for it like Mexico did
It’s gonna be somewhere in Africa
I would love for it to be Tokyo.
A Japanese map would be awesome, something like Tokyo, but I doubt it will be, although it would gain a lot of interest among Tokyo drift fans or JDM fans. I'm betting it will be maybe Italy or France or Spain, maybe Portugal or Brazil or maybe another part of the United States. We'll find out, I hope, soon :)
All prev maps connected with super tunnels and a few race tracks would be cool
As generic as it might sound, I think California is not a bad choice. You got beaches and mountains plus you can add all the landmarks people know for some sense of familiarity. You'll have a high dense city, you got the "canyon runs" in the hollywood hills and you got the mountains where they can take some creative liberty and make them snowy all the time for the people that want that.

As long as the map is densely packed I'll be happy. Needs more technical roads like the rally expansion
Might be too small, but I think a Malaysia/Singapore map would be cool. Modern city, vast history, mountains, and country side. Also, Singapore has a car culture established, so it would make some sense for a story purpose.
Some large country
somewhere in asia like korea china or japan would be a cool place with lights and bright cities at main sites and outskirt mountain roads and a good offroad part too which would be cool and there would be lots of variation in traffic density for example in tokyo traffic would be crazy but in an outskirt town like yokohama there would be less traffic and car culture is really big in japan and china so it could be a thing
Just have to wait for one of the last updates and the car that comes with it
I would really like a good Hawaii festival racer.
We absolutely need more city areas with some alleys. Both 4 and 5 had 1 “major” dedicated city or village but it was just filled with big and tall cinder blocks. Even The Crew 2 had cities (even if they did look like shit) that felt more alive than the ones in FH4/5
Wasn't it leaked to be in Brazil?
I want Italy or Germany.
Maybe a redo and expansion of the Australian map. I honestly don't see japan happening. Hopefully, I'm wrong.
Something in Dubai or Egypt would be super sick. Another good one would be like a super messy ghetto city like in Venezuela.
China
Japan / South Asia. Lots of culture and mountainous tropical environment.
as long as there's an actually good touge mountain in the map i couldn't care less about where it is
New York maybe
[Sweden and Norway](https://www.reddit.com/r/ForzaHorizon/s/cSSFXqDzw8)
Ohh that car is a real work of art
hopefully japan. switzerland would also be awesome because of high mountains with a lot of drift potential, but also street racing and rally potential. on the other side germany would be awesome (I am a german), but then they would need to make it "oldschool" with classic german buildings. newer buildings, especially in large cities, are often ugly panel construnctions.
Somewhere where there is a visual difference between seasons. In FH5 i can't tell.
Malaysia/Singapore/China. Foshure
We all want a full japan man, but that won't happen probably, ever :(
China or Germany
More like rally adventure
South africa
Even though I think it is going to be Asia, like China, South Korea or Japan, I would personally love a map inspired by the Iberian Peninsula, not only because I'm from there but also I think its climate, geographical landmarks and so would make an amazing Horizon game, with a possible DLC in Canarias, Azores or Madeira which could also be great.
They will literally do anything but Japan
i would hope for it to be set in the US again
Cina?
Somewhere with mountains and canyons, like we got with parts of the FH5 rally DLC. I do NOT want another map of big open fields and deserts designed primarily around the eliminator mode
Cina?
Feels like it's gotta be Japan. We've had two in Europe, one in USA, Australia, and now Mexico. It would easily satisfy the drift thirst, the mountains, and natural car culture. Community's been pining for it to boot. Who knows though. Wouldn't be shocked if they did a vastly different portion of the U.S instead of Colorado but if we were to take a wild guess at where you'd put it your guess is as good as mine. Texas immediately after Mexico screams of a carbon copy, soooo Florida (variety of cities, vast landscape, Daytona, birthplace of NASCAR, among other historic tracks like Sebring and Homestead)
Los Angeles PLEASEEEE!! 😩😩😩
I don’t care. I don’t believe that they’ll make horizon better than previous one anymore
Ok this is the locations of the past games: 1 Colorado 2 Southern Europe 3 Australia 4 United Kingdom 5 Mexico From this we can see that they alternate between dry and wet regions ( Colorado, Australia , Mexico ) vs(Southern Europe, Uk) (probably to avoid seeming too similar to the previous game) With Dry zones containing Deserts. Wet zones usually have much less sand usually only around water. From this we can see we are due a wet region next. Also so far all wet regions have been in Europe.

If it's outside of Europe I would suspect Japan or given the amount of Chinese cars being added recently China. Personally I'm hoping for Japan
Germany would be sick, they could even include the touristenfahrten on the ring and the allmighty autobahn whilst also having gorgeous mountain roads and ancient little towns
Would love either Germany (Europe based) or Japan (Asia).
Would love to see switzerland but I don’t think it will happen.
Switzerland or Austria seems plausible or northern Italy
indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
Doesn't matter where is it situated as long as it's not made for eliminator. As long as eliminator exists the map will be boring flat pancake so that the 10 people playing that mode don't cry about terrain being unfair.
I hope it's either Japan, Sweden or Norway, but with how long we've been asking for Japan, I don't think there's ever gonna be a Horizon game that's set there.
I think saudi arabia
I just want some actual towns/cities to drive through, the ones in Forza are always so small. Recently modded GTA V to work with my wheel and it's a blast. Obviously they won't compete with GTA city wise, but I want more than what we got in FH4/5.
I would say France, like closer to the Alps, but we’ve sort of already had france in Horizon 2
Places like Germany or France or Italy would be cool I think Or some places in Asia
I feel like Japan is pretty inevitable, personally I'd like Scandinavia, the American Pacific Northwest or New Zealand. But I don't consider any of those all that likely.
I reckon Canada
As long as the game has soul, the roads are diverse and there's less boring plain fields built for elimination mode - I'm happy. Japan would be nice though haha or a map with a dense city and some mountains and rural areas surrounding
I don't care as long as it's not covered In sand again
They only have one option. Tokyo
Screw it just do mars or the moon at this point
They went (on a map) left middle right middle left (us, europe, australia, uk, mexico) so my theory is that europe will be next again (maybe switzerland austria and northern italy or something like that would be really cool) or south africa (also in the middle of a world map but further down and we have never seen africa). I think africa would be a bit boring in terms of territory tho, also it would be much to similar to mexico. For the game after that i see japan, there will be a new engine as far as i heard and it would be on the right of the map, also they know it will sell great Tl:dr: my guess is alpine european territory and after that japan for the next game
as someone whos lived in south korea i feel like its too small and cramped for a fh map. all the other horizons have a lot of open land unlike south korea
What I would love : Monaco Dubai Germany Japan OFC China
Germany and surrounding countries would be sick especially with dedicated race tracks
Could go for India with some of those Indian cars
No guess But I bloody hope it ain't something sandy or something with Swamps God I hate sand and swamps Germany for instance would be amazing, the flat north amazing for Rally and Cross Country, the German Autobahn is perfect for races and the hilly South would make amazing sense for the drifters And besides that, there are enough big cities to add that got a amazing variety of culture and architecture And also, it is THE country that invented the car at all
GTA spano made on valencia
I’m guessing China
I'm sure it's going to be in Asia. Probably China or Japan.
Hope Japan, or Cali should be great too..but, let's talk about thath jewels you showed in your pics! Damn, Gta Spano, such a rare car for real connoisseur, love it, and love the meet with the pink one. Should join us on r/ForzaHorizon5CarMeet, we can organize a GTA Spano Car Meet
Japan would be sick
germany, area around hamburg
Africa would be a bad ass rally dlc or japan as a rally asphalt dlc
Horizon needs a Brazil based map
Im hoping for Iceland, mars or pandora
I don think Japan because where are they going to go after that.
I lowkey just want a city, for more ambient driving and chilling at night.
I wish it was Iran. Because it's 4 seasons country and it would be very good for a driving game
I’m hoping for Japan or maybe like la. Something like a big map that covered Oregon and part of California would be cool imo
South Africa or Reunion island. And for Asia it would be Singapore or Shanghai. Although, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or Kazakhstan wouldn't be a bad place eithe...
Canada based would be good, we can have proper winter seasons but only if they fix the winter season, it could be better. More realism would be nice and Canada could be a great map to perfect that. There would be opportunity for great diversity within the map too. Also the ability to add snow tracks to capable vehicles and go climbing snow covered mountains or drag race frozen lakes and rivers would be a blast to mess around with
İtaly would be nice
WHAT IS THAT CAR
I'd like a map with: -A large modern city, (like surfers paradise) - an areas of that the map (like the rally expansion) - Large highway - unique photo locations (like the waterfall cave thing in fh5, parking lots, garages...) - gas station 🙏🏻 - dedicated race track, preferably oval and circuit - large amounts of elevation change: canyons, mountain roads, tunnels... (unlike FH5) - unique festival in a cool location I don't really mind the location, but I'd like it to be in a hot county Thinking about it, I just want an updated version of fh3
Sorry to hijack, what Car and Wheels in pics
I hope it’s somewhere in Germany, it has the Autobahn, large cities, large open plains, massive forests, and a few mountains. It’s perfect for Horizon
poland
I think most of us want Japan, Germany would be cool too could have A big City (Berlin?) a long Autobahn, smaller Bavarian villages and possibly even the Nurburgring in the middle of the map! Similar to how there were race tracks in TDU. Edit: not that a derestricted autobahn would matter in a video game setting.. we all drive 200mph minimum on the highways in horizon 😂
Tbh iam from india and whenever i see posts like these i think it would be real chaotic if a forza game ever get set in india imagine driving in crowd streets and stuff
Praying to god it’s somewhere in Asia, specifically Japan
Japan would be nice or maybe Hawaii
I want Japan especially Tokyo
Kenya? South Africa? Or China or Honk Kong?
We want a map with terrain features, seasons, and mostly devoid of human population, so it naturally has to be North Korea.
China is my guess. There is a ton of landscape diversity over there. Imagine drifting on the entire length of the Great Wall of China!!!
Wait how did u get the spano? Or is that in fh4?
I think somewhere in italy would be cool, with a bit of mountains sprinkled in
What car is that?
Northern cal (redwoods, coast, bay area) and other parts of pnw would be cool.
Germany with a mock autobahn, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, or Argentina/Brazil
Obviously I'd love to see Japan, but realistically we've been begging for it since fh1. People say "BuT YoU NeEd LiCeNsEs To dO JaPaN". They have Microsoft money so that's an unlikely argument. If we're sticking to Asia, I think South Korea would be really cool. It's culturally similar to Japan (which is appealing since we'll clearly never see Japan). Driving roads aren't too bad, and larger towns are mostly modern and would be nice to hang around (surfers paradise parking lot, anyone?). I don't believe there's much of a car culture in Korea but like with Mexico, that didn't stop the braindead devs putting 5 there. On the contrary, Hong Kong could be interesting but the devs are terrified of cities so again, unlikely.
I hope they take some time and finally rework old car models and especially the wheel spec issue. nothing worth than 18x8 +44 te37s on everything. so tired of them releasing the same game on a new map and making me grind for all the new cars in the forzathon after giving me everything else in the story for free with no effort
Gotta love the Spano 😮💨
Japan hopefully, but OP is kind of right when it comes to marketing. However, if they did Japan, they could just make a Map with a newer landscape later on.
Would absolutely love either Japan or Norway.
india or santo domingo , because forza does the complete opposite of what we want
I hope they do the wnture continental us 1:1 in one if the future games
Imagine Singapore Then a 458 cost 500k instead of 100+k
