Time to start your engines, racers. After over six years of waiting, the doors are finally opening for the next generation of Forza Motorsport. Well, they’re opening for some players. Forza Motorsport (2023) enjoys five days of early access, available to those who purchased the Forza Motorsport Premium Edition or the Premium Add-Ons Bundle.
That’s still five days of early access to one of the best Xbox games of the year, with a roster of over 500 cars, 20 tracks, and a ton of game modes and races to enjoy. In our Forza Motorsport (2023) review, I concluded that Turn 10 Studios had achieved a new height for the simulation racing series, with some of the best driving I’ve ever experienced in a racing game. It’s not perfect, but it’ll undoubtedly improve after launch.

Everyone else will have to wait a few days to join in the fun, but we’ll all get the same entirely rebuilt physics engine and driving systems, the best accessibility in any racing game, and Forza’s strongest multiplayer suite yet.
