- Forza Horizon 6 is joining Xbox Game Pass in May 2026, with availability on Cloud, Console, and PC for Ultimate/PC Game Pass subscribers. This aligns with Microsoft’s early-May bundle announcements and multiple outlets confirming FH6 as part of the May 2026 lineup.[1][4]
- The game released on May 19, 2026 for Xbox Series X|S and PC, and is accessible to Game Pass members at launch or via Cloud Gaming on supported devices, depending on your subscription tier [6][7][8].
- Early access and premium editions offered options to play a few days ahead for some players, though pricing details and exact early-access windows have varied by region and subscription status.[2][4][10]
- Other May 2026 additions alongside FH6 included titles like DOOM: The Dark Ages and Subnautica 2, illustrating a strong month for Game Pass offerings, per multiple outlets tracking the batch of new releases.[4][1]
Quick takeaway
