Premium Upgrade adds Premium content but does not include the base game. Confirm your existing game or eligible Game Pass access and compare the add-ons you already own before purchasing.
Compare entitlements rather than bundle names
The official edition table distinguishes the full-game editions from the add-on upgrade. Early Access was a May launch benefit; it is not a new access window that begins when someone buys an upgrade in October.
Suggested purchase comparison
Use the current store page and your receipts for a decision specific to your account.
- Confirm that you can access the base game on the platform where you will play.
- List any packs or Car Pass entitlement you already own.
- Compare the current upgrade contents with that list.
- Check the storefront and account for the purchase.
- Read the current price and included content before accepting checkout.
Future content and subscription access
An included future expansion is not proof that it has released. Likewise, owning add-ons does not by itself guarantee continued access to a subscription-provided base game. Keep those two dependencies in mind when deciding whether the bundle serves your plans.

Does an upgrade purchase alone let me launch FH6?
No. The official comparison identifies it as add-on content, and the FAQ requires the game or the relevant Game Pass access separately.
