Xbox and Playground Games have announced the exact launch times for Forza Horizon 6 across time zones. Early Access starts May 14–15 for Premium Edition buyers (US times vary by region), with the full launch on May 18–19 depending on location. The game will be playable on Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, and Steam, with day-one Xbox Game Pass availability and Play Anywhere support. Premium Edition is priced at $119.99 (often discounted to about $92.99 at Loaded); Standard Edition is also discounted at Loaded (about $54.39). A “New Zealand trick” exists to enter early by switching your console location to NZ, effectively advancing access by up to half a day.
