Forza Horizon 6 Early Access Starts May 15

Forza Horizon 6 Premium Edition owners can begin playing on May 15, four days before the Standard Edition launches on May 19. Game Pass subscribers can buy a Premium Upgrade Bundle on the Xbox Store for $59.99 or £59.99 to gain the same early access.

The Premium Edition includes the full game, VIP membership, a Welcome Pack, a Time Attack Car Pack, a Car Pass that delivers 30 cars over time, a post-launch Italian Passion Car Pack and access to two future premium expansions. Microsoft lists the full Premium Edition at £109.99 / $119.99 on the Xbox Store.

The Premium Upgrade Bundle excludes the base game because it assumes access through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass. That bundle provides the early-access window and the additional content included in the Premium Edition, but not the base game.

Forza Horizon 6 is an Xbox Play Anywhere title, so buying the Xbox console version grants the PC version at no extra cost. Early access is limited to Premium Edition owners and to buyers of the Premium Upgrade Bundle.

Some retailers have advertised lower prices for the Premium Edition or the upgrade bundle; buyers should confirm seller reputation and terms before purchasing and consult the Xbox Store for official pricing and availability.

Players can buy the full Premium Edition, purchase the Premium Upgrade Bundle if they already have Game Pass, choose a Standard or Deluxe edition at launch, or wait to access the Standard Edition on May 19.
