Tokyo Game Show 2025 Xbox stream: Forza Horizon 6 game revealed and other announcements as the stream begins
Live updates as the show begins
Xbox is at Tokyo Game Show 2025 with a special broadcast coming right from the event.
The annual event in one of the biggest gaming trade fairs in Asia, effectively serving as the Japanese equivalent to the likes of Gamescom. It's always a fantastic place to learn about the Japanese gaming industry and often the home of no shortage of exciting announcements.
With that said, let's dive in to my live Tokyo Game Show 2025 Xbox coverage now the show is underway.
When is the Tokyo Game Show 2025 Xbox stream?
The Tokyo Game Show 2025 Xbox stream takes place today on September 25 at 7pm JST / 3am PT / 6am ET / 11am BST.

Tokyo Game Show 2025 Xbox stream predictions
My big prediction for the Tokyo Game Show 2025 Xbox stream is a new Forza Horizon game set in Japan.
Forza Horizon 5 released all the way back in 2021, so it's about time that we got a sequel. The latest rumors also all indicate that the next game will take place in Japan, so an announcement at a Japanese event like this makes a lot of sense.
Otherwise, I'm not really sure what to expect. Of course, a lot of third-party games will be present - so it seems safe to assume that some major Japanese publishers will want to get in on the action.
Some Sega games might also be a good shout, as the brand is often a big presence at the event. Maybe we'll finally see Sega's Crazy Taxi revival, or some other retro favorites brought back.
Xbox has already confirmed that the Asus ROG Xbox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X handhelds will be on the show floor, so expect them to appear too. Ninja Gaiden 4 will also be playable at the Xbox booth, so a new trailer for that ahead of its release next month is a sure-fire bet.
I'm a tech journalist with a focus on gaming hardware. Before I worked at Techradar, I contributed to some of the UK's largest gaming magazines, including Play, Edge, PC Gamer, and SFX. I have reported on plenty of previous Xbox events and extensively covered the latest Xbox products.

Oh, that's a bit anticlimactic... It turns out that Microsoft has accidentally revealed Forza Horizon 6 over on an Instagram post.
The image, posted to the official Forza Horizon page, shows an in-game cinematic and is accompanied by the caption "The Horizon Festival is heading to Japan."
The cinematic also confirms a 2026 release window.
The Tokyo Game Show sale is here
If you want to celebrate Tokyo Game Show 2025 with some fantastic savings on great games, than the latest Xbox sale has you covered.
I'm seeing some top-notch sale prices while scrolling through the Toyko Game Show Sale section of the Xbox store right now, including a 40% discount on Final Fantasy 15 Complete Edition. Monster Hunter Wilds has also had its price slashed, as has Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster.
Head over to the official sale page and have a browse - you might be able to find a bargain ahead of today's stream.
How long will the show be?
Interestingly, there's no official word on how long the stream will be - which makes it a little bit difficult to predict just how many reveals there might be.
Luckily we can always look at previous year's shows to work out the potential length. Last year's Tokyo Game Show broadcast lasted just over 51 minutes, so I would expect this year's to last a similar length of time.
What if I can't watch the show?
