Microsoft Game Studios committed to PGR

News | September 30, 2007 6:59 pm
One interesting bit of fall out from the purchase of Bizarre Creations by Activison is the possibility of the Project Gotham Racing series (long and Xbox exclusive) showing up on other platforms. Well, John Porcaro at Gamerscoreblog responded to questions about the merger and reiterated that Microsoft Game Studios is committed to PGR. Microsoft Game Studios is completely committed to PGR 4 now, and in the future. We consider Project Gotham Racing a signature franchise for the Xbox 360 and Xbox LIVE, and we have definite plans to continue the series (though we have nothing further to announce now). Porcaro wrote in his blog post on Gamerscoreblog. See the full post below to see Microsofts response to the questions:



MGS Committed to Project Gotham Racing

Most of you have heard the news that Activision has acquired Bizarre Creations, the creators of the Project Gotham Racing series. Were getting some questions about what this means for the upcoming release of PGR 4 and subsequent sequels.

Microsoft Game Studios is completely committed to PGR 4 now, and in the future. We consider Project Gotham Racing a signature franchise for the Xbox 360 and Xbox LIVE, and we have definite plans to continue the series (though we have nothing further to announce now).

Bizarre Creations has been a great partner for MGS, and everyone wishes them all the best in the future. Theyve built an amazing franchise for the Xbox and the Xbox 360, and one of the most popular racing games on Xbox LIVE (not to mention one of the most popular Xbox LIVE Arcade releases, Geometry Wars). The team at Bizarre is already working on downloadable content for PGR 4, and well let you know more about that later on.

PGR 4 is far and away the best of the series. Its getting great reviews, and were extremely excited for its release next week in the US, and a few weeks later in other regions. Find out more by visiting www.xbox.com/pgr4.
