The developer of the Forza Motorsport series, Turn 10 Studios, confirmed that pre-orders are available for the upcoming racing game entry. As it will be made available for Xbox Series X|S and PC, it’s a franchise first with no availability for Xbox One consoles.

Nevertheless, players can head to the race tracks early by taking advantage of the Early Access feature in the game’s Premium Add-On Bundle and Premium Edition. Here’s what we know about the Forza Motorsport Early Access feature, including unlock dates, times, and platforms.

10th October 2023 Update: We've updated this guide to reflect that Forza Motorsport's Early Access for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox Game Pass, Cloud Gaming, Windows PC, and Steam has ended as the game is now globally available. The original article continues below.

Forza Motorsport Early Access Unlock Time

As of writing, it has yet to be determined when Early Access will be made available to players globally for Forza Motorsport. This depends on the regional unlock dates and time for the Premium Edition and Premium Add-On Bundle, as it’s stated on its store page that it will be available five days before its global release.

We can confirm that Forza Motorsport will launch on 10th October 2023 for Xbox Series X|S and PC (Windows & Steam) for those who’ve pre-ordered or purchased the standard or Deluxe Editions. Players who’ve pre-ordered or purchased either the Premium Edition or Premium Add-On Bundle will be able to play Forza Motorsport five days early on 5th October 2023 for the platforms mentioned above.

Likewise, as we could expect regional dates and times for the game’s Early Access globally, this will be confirmed closer to launch; however, Xbox games typically launch at 12 am local time. Nevertheless, you can keep track of the exact date and time of Forza Motorsport’s Early Access launch with our official countdown timer below:

Players who will get Forza Motorsport’s standard or Deluxe Editions have the option to acquire the Premium Add-On Bundle; however, it will require the base game for the add-on content to be available in-game. You also have the option to get your copy of the game available to those with an Xbox Game Pass for console or PC subscriptions and Cloud Gaming on launch day.

As we have yet to determine the Early Access and full launch times globally for console and PC, we’ll update this countdown timer once information becomes available. Below, you can find a countdown clock and the exact times/dates when Forza Motorsport becomes available worldwide:
