Forza Horizon 6 is now Metacritic's highest-rated multiplatform game of 2026 so far, giving Xbox the top spot with a 92 average.
Metacritic's ranking uses the platform version with the most reviews, which kept Resident Evil Requiem at 89 on the multiplatform list even though its Xbox version scored 93.
The top 10 multiplatform list places Pokémon Pokopia and Resident Evil Requiem next at 89, followed by Mewgenics at 88 and several titles clustered between 87 and 86.
Xbox's own 2026 chart looks stronger than the multiplatform ranking, with Hades 2 at 95 and Mixtape matching Forza Horizon 6 at 92 on Xbox-specific reviews.
The result strengthens Forza Horizon 6's standing as a major first-party hit for Playground Games and an early Game of the Year contender for Xbox.
