15-Chapter Crossover

Initial D Horizon Stories is FH6's centerpiece crossover content — a 15-chapter, ~8 hour storyline that recreates Initial D's most iconic manga moments inside the game. Playground Games partnered with Lantis (Initial D's publisher) starting in 2024 to make this happen.

Each chapter focuses on an Initial D set piece — Takumi's first downhill run, his duel with Ryosuke Takahashi, the Iwase team battle, the Project D tour — letting you replay them as Takumi or his rivals.

4 Initial D Livery Cars

FH6 unlocks 4 Initial D crossover liveries, each tied to a manga character:

  • 1985 Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex (AE86) — Takumi's car, panda livery. AE86 details
  • 1990 Mazda Savanna RX-7 FD3S — Ryosuke Takahashi's car, yellow RX-7 livery.
  • 1998 Subaru Impreza 22B STi — Bunta Fujiwara's later car, blue 22B livery.
  • 1989 Nissan Silvia K's S13 — Takeshi Nakazato's car, white Silvia livery.
