Only 250 tickets will be given out and it’s first come first serve.

During the Xbox FanFest, gamers will be able to attend a special Forza Horizon 3 launch, some sort of secret late afternoon event on September 28th, for Gears of War 4, and much more. For the entire list of what’s happening, see below.
