| Forza 6 launches in the UK today with a Top Gear Stig challenge |
FORZA Motorsport 6 has officially launched in the UK and Microsoft has kicked off its celebration with a new Top Gear test track challenge, featuring The Stig.
YouTube stars, ProSyndicate, MasterOv and Car Throttle were thrown down the Xbox One challenge of racing against The Stig on the Top Gear test track, but it came with a twist.
Instead of just sitting behind the screen, the four Youtube stars had to fasten their seatbelts and race The Stig live from the back seat of the fast car.
YouTubers racing in game and The Stig for real.
The new racing title features 460 cars, 26 tracks, including the Nurburgring, Le Mans’ Circuit de la Sarthe, Silverstone and Yas Marina.
Forza 6 gamers can also partake in Top Gear showcase events, featuring bowling in a BMW, as well as a series of challenges using the likes of the Ariel Atom and Lambo Huracan.
It was confirmed by Turn Ten Studios earlier this year that Forza 6 would not include former Top Gear presenter, Jeremy Clarkson.
“Top Gear still very much is a part of [Forza] Motorsport,” Turn 10 content director John Wendl said at the time.
“We have Stig’s Digital Cousin, we have the Top Gear Test Track, we have Top Gear inspired events in the game, and we actually have Richard [Hammond] and James [May] continuing to do voiceover in the game as well.”
Forza Motorsport 6 is available to buy in the UK now, priced £49.99 ERP. You can also purchase the Xbox One Forza Motorsport 6 Limited Edition Console at £369.99 ERP.
