Al Brazil Game Show di San Paolo la Polyphony Digital, per bocca di Kazunori Yamauchi, ha annunciato la nuova partnership di Gran Turismo 6 con la fondazione Ayrton Senna: l'accordo permetterà quindi di inserire nel gioco le varie vetture del leggendario pilota brasiliano, con la possibilità persino di ripercorrere la sua carriera. Un motivo in più quindi per attendere il rilascio di GT6, fissato al 6 dicembre.
GT fans! We are truly honored to bring you one of the most exciting news items culminated in the 15 year history of Gran Turismo. Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi was present today at the 2013 Brazil Game Show Press Conference with President of Ayrton Senna Institute (NGO) Viviane Senna (sister to the legendary F1 driver), to officially announce a long-term partnership with the Gran Turismo series. As part of this collaboration, Gran Turismo 6 (coming December 6th) will feature the legendary Brazilian racing driver Ayrton Senna through online updates, enabling players to trace the roots of his racing career.
The Ayrton Senna Institute is a non-profit organization established in 1994 by Ayrton Senna’s sister, Viviane, who carried on the hopes and dreams envisioned by Senna before he passed away.
The programs of the Senna Institute aim to have as many children as possible learn skills required for living successfully in today’s society. And at the center of that education is the effort to raise the literacy level of children. Since its establishment, schools supported by the Institute have spread to approximately 25% of the cities in all of Brazil, giving more than 17 million children an opportunity to receive education directly, and the Institute has trained over 750,000 teachers with their educational programs. In schools supported by the Senna Institute, education is performed using curriculum and textbooks prepared by the Institute.
