Our Recommendation

For most players: Premium Edition

The 4-day early access is huge for guide sites and dedicated players. You get a head start on exploration, achievements, and grabbing the best cars before the market floods.

Ultimate only if: You plan to spend hundreds of hours and want VIP bonuses, or you're a collector who wants every car.

Game Pass

If you have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, you already get FH6 on day one! No purchase needed - it's included in your subscription.

Note: Prices may vary by region. Check your local Microsoft Store for exact pricing.
