Porsche and Xbox join forces
(Oilandgaspress) Six iconic Porsche motorsport liveries will adorn a limited collection of Xbox consoles released throughout the summer.
Racing gaming has achieved extraordinary new levels of immersion over the years leading to new collaborations. Xbox has worked closely with Porsche to bring its iconic design to the platform through hits like the Forza franchise.
These liveries are now a part of racing lore, and the Xbox 75th Anniversary collection pays homage to six of Porsche’s most unforgettable looks by reimagining them for the Xbox Series X console and accompanying controllers. We will unveil the following six limited-edition console designs at major auto and gaming events around the globe this summer:
Porsche 911 GT1 won 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1998.
Porsche Hippie was a race car unlike any other. It was adorned in deep blue and bright green “hippie” colors.
Porsche Pink Pig was a pink race car. Pink? Yes. Covered in butcher-style cuts. It’s a race livery that gained cult status.
Porsche Salzburg gave Porsche its very first overall win at Le Mans.
Porsche Racing Edition is often referred to as the white whale (or Moby Dick) because of its huge tail.
Porsche 75th is the current race livery on the 963. T
“Many people who end up being our most dedicated fans had their first encounter with Porsche through gaming,” says Robert Ader, Vice President Global Marketing at Porsche AG. “That’s why it plays a key role for us to stay relevant not just among current fans but among new generations, showcasing in the most awesome and engaging way what our brand has to offer.”
“Porsche is thrilled to team up with Xbox to design custom, limited-edition gaming consoles to continue inspiring gamers to dream – both virtually and in the real world,” said Ayesha Coker, Vice President of Marketing of Porsche Cars North America, Inc. “With over 30,000 motorsport victories to date, it wasn’t easy to select only six liveries, but we’ve chosen some of the most iconic ones that our fans will recognize from notable victories over the years.”
