With the Horizon Festival coming to breathtaking Japan, you’ll need the essential gear to prove you’ve got what it takes to become a Horizon Legend as you cruise, drift and explore an open world full of spectacular driving experiences. That’s why we’re happy to announce the newest Limited Edition Xbox Wireless Controller and Wireless Headset collection, featuring inspired designs from Forza Horizon 6. The bright cyan and lime colorways celebrate the Horizon Festival’s recognition of iconic cars and hit music, with special features that are sure to impress any collector.

The Xbox Wireless Controller – Limited Edition Forza Horizon 6 is one of the most vibrant controllers Xbox has ever released. With a transparent cyan blue top case easing into a metallic gradient, it is accentuated with volt green, hot pink, and silver. The pops of color are further emphasized by a silver metallic DPad and two-tone rubberized diamond grips. The core design inspiration emerged from the Touge roads of Japan. Touge – winding, narrow roads found across Japanese mountainsides – are hailed as the birthplace for drifting, so a top-down view of these exhilarating routes was the perfect homage to Japanese street racing. With up to 40 hours of battery life and a 3.5mm jack to connect your favorite compatible headset, drop straight into a vast world of discovery and Festival racing with the newest Horizon adventure.

The Xbox Wireless Headset – Limited Edition Forza Horizon 6 continues that overarching theme of the Horizon Festival, decorated with flashy transparent cyan, volt green and hot pink. The headset was created with the Forza super fan in mind, with special touches like the hot pink logo invoking pit crew aesthetics, and racetrack inspired graphics inside the ear cups. The addition of custom sound effects enhances the experience with a more personalized feel.

Aiming for total immersion, certain actions like turning the headset on and off, pairing devices, muting/unmuting your mic and many others will include custom sound effects, mixing a Japanese V8 engine with the Forza Horizon 6 UI. Every time you boot up to play will feel like you’re getting right into the driver’s seat, powered by spatial sound technologies like Windows Sonic, Dolby Atmos and DTS Headphone: X. If you’re gaming on a Windows 11 PC or handheld and want to team up with friends for some co-op action, Bluetooth LE Audio lets you enjoy immersive, rich stereo sound, even during party chat with super wideband stereo voice. Whether you’re chatting with your squad or playing solo, never miss a moment in-game with high quality and low latency audio.

Both the controller and headset feature Xbox Wireless and Bluetooth capabilities, meaning they can connect to your Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles, PC, OS, Android, and Cloud devices. Both accessories being wireless means no dongles or base station required. Play for longer with up to 40 hours of battery life with the controller and 20 hours of rechargeable battery life with the headset.
