Today, during the Xbox E3 2017 briefing, we unveiled that the best-selling racing franchise of this console generation is back with a premiere Project Scorpio experience, Forza Motorsport 7, and in continued collaboration with Porsche, debuted Raymond as the cover car. Forza always brings the best and most exclusive new cars to our fans, and we’ re honored to present this stunning upcoming high-performance 911 GT car in time for our new title. This moment is a testament to digital and real-world racing merging in an unprecedented way. E3 attendees will be the first to drive the most powerful 911 for the road ever in Forza Motorsport 7 on Project Scorpio, the most powerful console ever.
Thanks to our loyal fans, the Forza franchise is home to over 4.8 million active users per month, making it one of the largest racing communities in the world and the premiere gaming partner to the automotive industry. Just this past April, we announced a six-year partnership with Porsche, the winningest manufacturer in racing, who shares our vision for the future of gaming, motorsport and automotive entertainment.
