Xbox Launches 11-Jacket Forza Horizon 6 Sweepstakes Ahead of June 28 Deadline
2 articles · Updated · Xbox.com · May 12
Xbox is giving away 11 custom Japanese denim racing jackets to promote Forza Horizon 6, with entries open to adults in Xbox-supported regions excluding Russia until 5 p.m. PT on June 28.
Two designs anchor the sweepstakes: 10 Zipangu x Forza Horizon 6 jackets and one Sung Kang edition, both made from upcycled Japanese selvedge denim with game-themed detailing.
The Zipangu version adds reflective seam taping, a full Forza Horizon 6 lining, a controller pocket and a keychain zipper pull, while the Sung Kang jacket includes hand-sewn appliques, sashiko patches, LED seam tape and extra interior pockets.
Xbox created the promotion with Japanese-American brand Uprisers Lab and Zipangu, billed as Los Angeles' first J-Pop music festival, tying the game's launch to Japanese car and street-culture imagery.
How will Forza balance its harsh 8000-year bans on leakers with the community-centric spirit its new game promotes?
As gaming and fashion merge, what does this collaboration reveal about the future of brand partnerships beyond simple in-game items?
With only 11 jackets available, does this giveaway truly build community or just create unattainable hype for millions of fans?
