The collection commemorates Porsche's greatest outings in motorsports

Forza Horizon is an Xbox-exclusive racing video game that showcases Porsche models such as various iterations of the 911 and 718. It allows gamers to get behind the wheel of the automaker’s sports cars in the virtual world.

The collection is scheduled to be unveiled in Q3 2023 at major auto and gaming events around the world. Although, the special edition Xbox will not be up for retail. It will instead be given away to lucky individuals residing in the US, UK, and Germany through a raffle. 

“Many people who end up being our most dedicated fans had their first encounter with Porsche through gaming,” said Porsche AG Vice President Global Marketing Robert Ader. “That’s why it plays a key role for us to stay relevant not just among current fans but among new generations.”

“Xbox and its fan base are no stranger to Porsche and the incredible capabilities of its high-performance vehicles in our beloved racing and driving games like Forza Horizon 5,” said Xbox Director of Global Partnerships Marcos Waltenberg. “That’s why we’re excited to team up with the renowned sports car brand to create special edition Xbox hardware that celebrates their milestone anniversary.”
