It’s Forza Horizon week and we are waiting eagerly to get our hands on the wheel but you might be wondering when you can get early access to Microsoft’s new racer and the good news is it is only days away right now.
When is Forza Horizon 5 Early Access?
If you simply can’t wait to get playing Forze Horizon 5 then the Early Access date is the one you should be circling on your calendar.
The game will actually release on Xbox and PC properly on November 9th but you can actually jump in on November 5th if you are prepared to fulfill Microsoft’s Early Access criteria.
How to get Forza Horizon 5 Early access
In order to get a four-day jump-start on everybody waiting for the launch proper, it is going to cost you. Early access is only available for those prepared to stump up for the Premium edition of Forza Horizon 5.
Even the Deluxe edition does not unlock until November 9th so this is a bonus only for the ultra-keen, especially when you consider you can play the base version at no cost with your Xbox Game Pass.
How big is Forza Horizon 5?
Bad news small hard disk fans as Forza Horizon 5 is going to weigh in at more than 100GB, so if you want to play it as soon as it becomes available to you, be that on the 5th or 9th of November you might want to think about pre-installing it to avoid a lengthy wait.
Is there a Forza Horizons 5 demo?
Nope. No demo. Nada. The devs are giving nothing away beyond what we have seen already until we can get our games on the game itself. This may disappoint some people but at least if you have Game Pass there is no financial risk in case the game doesn’t turn out to be for you.
