You can now get your hands on Forza Horizon 5 thanks to the early access offered in the Premium Edition of the game. If you didn't pre-order this version of the game, it can still be purchased separately.

Here's everything you need to know about when you can get your hands on Forza Horizon 5 via early access.

The game is available to pre-load right now on Xbox and PC regardless of which edition you plan to play. You'll need 116 GB of free space on Xbox One to download the game and 103 GB on Xbox Series X/S or PC.

If you choose to pre-order the premium edition of Forza Horizon 5, the 4 days of early access isn't the only bonus you get. You'll also receive the VIP Pass, 42 additional cars thanks to the Car Pass, two additional expansions and the Welcome Pack.

The Welcome Pack includes 5 pre-tuned cars, a player-owned house, a one-time grant for any car from the Autoshow and three one-time grants that can be used for any common or uncommon item of clothing.

There's no sign of any map DLC items this time around but they may still be available using in-game currency instead. Previously, maps would reveal collectable items like barn finds, drones and other locations of interest.
