Forza Horizon 3 is joining past Forza Horizon games in the Microsoft Store graveyard. The game is nearing its “end of life” and will soon no longer be available for purchase.
Even though the game will be de-listed starting on September 27, 2020, players who already own the game will still have access. This includes multiplayer and online services. The news was confirmed via Twitter:
When a game reaches “End of Life”, that means it and its DLC will no longer be available for purchase in the Microsoft Store. However, features like multiplayer and online services will still be accessible for those that own the game.
