System 3 and Activision Team Up on Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli

System 3 and Activision are gearing up to unleash Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli on racing fans. Gamers can race these finely tooled machines on the PS3, PS2, Wii and the DS.

“Without a doubt, this is the defining Ferrari experience for video games,” said Mark Cale, CEO at System 3. “It has been a collaboration with professionals on every level and we’ve truly captured the power, beauty, and excitement that is the Ferrari Challenge Series. This excitement is taken to a whole new level with the partnership of Activision’s power within the North American marketplace.”

“For the last sixty years Ferrari has been synonymous with precision, performance and elegant design, so expectations for the game will be high from auto enthusiasts and racing game fans alike,” said Dave Oxford, Activision Publishing. “Everyone involved in Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli has been dedicated to ensuring this product over-delivers on the experience of this legendary brand.”

Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli plays like a sim, offering gamers 15 international racing circuits. Gameplay modes include Ferrari Challenge Seasons, Time Trial, Quick Race, and Endurance. You can challenge up to 16 friends online to circuits, hill climbs, and more.

Activision promises new content and real world based updates on cars and line ups as DLC.

Downloadable content will be continually released for the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli community, and the official team and car rosters can be updated at the start of each season to reflect real-world lineups. Moreover, downloadable cars, tracks and customization options will be made available on a monthly basis to keep ravenous Ferrari fans satisfied.

Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli will roll up to the starting gate late summer 2008.
