The McLaren W1 will be in Forza Horizon 6, and sooner rather than later, arriving on 10th September.

This is according to the car manufacturer itself, which has confirmed its new range-topping hypercar for the British Automotive Series update.

The free Festival Playlist update is slated to include three new-to-Horizon British cars available to earn, while the W1 is specifically stated to be part of the related Car Pass DLC.

The Car Pass is included with the Deluxe and Premium editions of the game, or is available as a separate DLC season pass. There will be 30 cars available in total once the roll-out is complete. Each car available within it is available as a separate DLC purchase too for $2.99/£2.99.

On the 10th September, alongside this McLaren, a further three new-to-Horizon Car Pass additions will be confirmed.

“Forza Horizon 6 players will soon be able to own and drive the latest car in McLaren’s ‘1’ car lineage in-game, as the McLaren W1 joins the action on 10 September,” said the car company.

“Introduced to players as part of the British Automotive Series update for the title, the car will be exclusively available to those who have purchased the Car Pass downloadable content (DLC) pack, and added directly to their in-game garage as part of the latest release of vehicles for this DLC.”

The W1 is a natural successor to the pioneer P1 and F1 supercars, featuring a mid-mounted hybrid V8 powertrain with 1258bhp. It has not been in another race game officially to date.

Game developer Playground Games and publisher Microsoft are expected to announce further details about the next game update next week. A new Drift Attack game mode will also be added at the same time.

It has also recently confirmed a 7-Eleven theme for October’s update.
