Forza Horizon 6 is screeching into view and stands as one of the biggest games set to be released in 2026, and, as is customary with modern releases, questions are floating around regarding the early access availability.
Early access has become a popular approach in modern gaming, with many developers charging an extra fee to be among the first wave of players in the game, and Xbox is utilising this approach with increasing frequency.
If you’re looking for all the details on Forza Horizon 6’s early access availability, Insider Gaming has everything you need to know, including the full costs of the privilege.
Does Forza Horizon 6 Have Early Access?
Yes, Forza Horizon 6 has early access available, with eligible players able to play the full game up to four days earlier than the official May 19 release date.
This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise to long-term fans of the franchise, as other Forza Horizon games, alongside Forza Motorsport games, have offered similar early availability.

However, as is often the case with modern gaming, additional days of access for Forza Horizon 6 come at a cost, requiring players to fork out a significant outlay for the bonus.
How to Get Forza Horizon 6 Early Access
Forza Horizon 6 early access is only available through purchasing the Premium Edition of the title, which offers the four-day period among its main benefits.
Gamers accessing Forza Horizon 6 through an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass subscription will not be able to play in early access either, unless they directly upgrade to the Premium Edition.
