Microsoft and Turn 10 Studios have announced a partnership with the American Le Mans Series. As a result, Forza Motorsport 4 will provide realistic models of tracks and cars from the racing series, and fans of the American Le Mans Series will have the opportunity to try out Forza Motorsport 4 at select race events before it launches in October.
“Our partnership with ALMS signifies the joining of two great automotive forces,” said Alan Hartman, Studio Manager of Turn 10 Studios. “We’re pushing the limits in Forza Motorsport 4 and taking peoples love of cars to a new level. Xbox and Forza Motorsport 4 will without a doubt be the best place to enjoy the iconic American Le Mans Series if you aren t at the track racing yourself.”
“The American Le Mans Series is about delivering the ultimate sports car racing experience for race fans and automotive enthusiasts around the world,” said American Le Mans Series CEO Scott Atherton. “Partnering with Turn 10 Studios and naming Forza Motorsport 4 as our official racing game partner unites our mutual passion for racing and provides our loyal fans even more ways to experience the American Le Mans Series. I don t know of any other racing series that gives its fans the opportunity to both watch live racing and race the cars and tracks themselves on the same gaming console.”
