The news broke at the New York International Auto Show (via Xbox Wire ), where Porsche and Turn 10 Studios announced a six-year collaboration to create co-branded content between Porsche and Forza.

The car pack launches today and includes seven Porsche vehicles that range from the vintage 1960 718 RS 60 to models as recent as the 2017 Panamera.

Additionally, the companies will hold several competitions, with the first taking place at New York’s flagship Microsoft store on Fifth Avenue from April 15-16. The event will pit 18 of ForzaRC’s Elite players against each other in a contest to win $25,000 in cash prizes.

This partnership between Porsche and Microsoft is particularly noteworthy, as it’s only been made possible due to the end of a long-standing exclusivity deal between Porsche and EA .

No, it just means that the next six Forza releases will have Porsche from the get go. Maybe be on the cover. They might get access to a few more cars than other racing games too. Think of it like the partnership that Forza used to have with Ferrari or the current one with Lamborghini.
