The wait for Forza Horizon 6 is nearly over. Premium Edition players can explore Japan from tomorrow, 15th May, before the general release four days later on 19th May.
In the meantime, Playground Games has revealed Forza Horizon 6’s release times, confirming exactly when players can access the game worldwide.
On Steam, the open-world racer will release globally at 12:01am in the US Eastern time zone.
Xbox release times, on the other hand, will vary. In countries with multiple time zones, access will start when the Eastern-most time zone reaches 12:01 am. For example, players in the US Pacific time zone can start playing at 9:01 pm, equivalent to 12:01 am ET.
This also means that the US West Coast release date will be 14 May for the Standard Edition and 18th May for the Premium Edition.
Here’s a full breakdown of Forza Horizon 6’s release times for different regions.
